Featured Workshop: Increasing Your Research Visibility

Join us on Tuesday, May 30, from 2-3 p.m. for an online workshop, Increasing Your Research Visibility*

In this session, we’ll discuss how making informed publishing decisions and managing your online researcher identity are effective ways to increase the visibility of your research. Different types of open access publishing models, including free ways to share your work, will be discussed. We’ll then take a deeper dive into how an Open Researcher and Contributor ID (ORCiD) helps distinguish yourself from other researchers, keeps your scholarly record up to date, and automates other researcher profile systems to showcase your impact.

After this class, participants will be able to:

  • Describe how publishing choices affect your research visibility
  • Describe the benefits of using ORCiD
  • Register for an ORCiD and add your works
  • Compare different researcher profile systems and choose the ones that are right for you

This workshop is suited for students, faculty, and staff. If you receive NIH funding and are building a biosketch, you will learn about how ORCiD and My NCBI can auto-populate some fields in the biosketch.
