OK, so in the [main content](https://github.com/OpenScienceMOOC/Module-1-Open-Principles/blob/master/content_development/MAIN.md) for this module, we just briefly introduced you to three services that you can use to enhance our researcher profile. These are based around documenting your research publications, the online attention these get, and your peer reviewer profile.

These are by no means the only platforms available to you, and not limited in scope to documenting your own worth as a researcher. However, what they do help to do is give you a better idea of how your researcher profile is developing, and allow others to see that too.

[ORCID](https://orcid.org/) stands for 'Open Researcher and Contributor ID'. It provides you with a persistent digital identifier that distinguishes you from every other researcher. It also neatly integrates with key research workflows such as manuscript and grant submission, supports automated linkages between you and your professional activities ensuring that your work is recognized.

The great advantage that ORCID has here is that this information can be ported into other systems, so stops you having to enter the same data over and over again across different platforms. Here, you can also enter information such as your country of residence, keywords, your website, emails, and other IDs that you might have. It's a good idea here to enter a nice, simple, but comprehensive biography.

This one is a bit simpler. If you have a citation record as a .bib file (BibTeX file format), you can simply select this from your desktop and upload it. ORCID will do the rest and populate your profile using this. You can use services like the export functions in Google Scholar to make this even easier.
