ORCID

Create an ORCID ID to make your research more visible! Affiliate your ORCID with VCU to make it easier for colleagues to find your publications! This guide talks about how and why to set up your ORCID.

The Libraries now have a more extensive SciENcv walkthrough guide for Biosketches (and Current & Pending/ Other Support) documents, which goes beyond ORCiD integrations. Please visit our Biosketch Guide if you are looking for more detailed SciENcv information.

Help files on how to add your ORCID to eRA Commons are also available. ORCIDs must be in eRA Commons profiles of senior and key personnel on RPPRs and proposals starting May 25, 2025 (per NOT-OD-24-163)
