Register for Using ORCID and SciENcv to Create an NIH Biosketch*

This interactive workshop incorporates live demonstrations and hands-on activities that walk attendees through the process of quickly creating an NIH Biosketch using data from ORCID, a unique and persistent author identifier. Attendees will gain practical experience adding scholarly works and other information to their ORCID records, connecting their ORCIDs to My NCBI, and then using SciENcv to pull ORCID data to prepopulate several sections of a Biosketch.

Upon completing this class, you should be able to:

  • Describe the benefits of using ORCID.
  • Add scholarly works and other information to your ORCID record.
  • Create an NIH Biosketch using SciENcv.

Level: Novice

What should you do before attending this class: Sign up for an ORCID iD and My NCBI account before the class.
