ORCID for hospital staff

Information and guidance for Hospital staff on ORCID

Professional submissions

Use your ORCID iD

Include your ORCID iD when you:

  • Submit manuscripts — publishers are adding ORCID iDs of contributors to a publication's metadata, correctly attributing your work to you
  • Apply for funding — the Australian Research Council (ARC) has ORCID integrated into the grant submission workflow. Other funding bodies including the National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC), the US National Institutes of Health and the Wellcome Trust are requesting ORCID iDs from grant applicants
  • Accept peer review assignments — you can be acknowledged for your contribution to the research community
  • Renew professional memberships —  organisations are increasingly using ORCID to help link and disambiguate members' identity
  • Create your poster presentations — get your QR Code for your ORCID iD and include it on your poster 
  • Communicate with colleagues — add your ORCID iD to your email signature or business card

For networking

There are a range of public profiles and collaborative platforms that may be of value to you as a researcher.

If you have one of the following profiles, or create one in the future, make sure that you add a link to it in the Website section of your ORCID:

  • Twitter
  • LinkedIn
  • Mendeley
  • Social Science Research Network (SSRN)
  • BioRxiv
  • Loop

You must still adhere to copyright licencing conditions when using these sites.
