Dear Colleagues

A great opportunity should you want to learn more about ORCID. LIASA HELIG had Laurel Haak presenting a webinar last year, and this one will focus on journals.

Please share with researchers in your institutions who might be interested.

Kind regards
Ina

About  [cid:image002.png at 01D0BEF8.DF200990] Connecting Research and Researchers



ORCID provides a persistent digital identifier that distinguishes an individual from every other researcher and, through integration in key research workflows such as manuscript and grant submission, supports automated linkages between the individual and his/her professional activities ensuring that his/her work is recognized.

What is a webinar?

A webinar is a seminar conducted over the Internet. Both the presenter and delegates simultaneously connect to a space on the World Wide Web. Participants can be located in different venues all at the same time. The only requirements are an e-device, stable Internet connection, Internet browser such as Google Chrome, and sound.



We are really looking forward to your participation in this event!
