ORCiD integration into science gateways

Abstract

With science gateways becoming more popular every day, both researchers and gateway developers are facing challenges in collecting, displaying, and verifying researcher career information, especially across multiple projects and organizations users are involved in. ORCID has attempted to simplify this for both researchers and organizations. ORCID is a non-profit organization that provides researchers with a persistent digital identifier, known as the ORCID iD, that links them with their work and allows them to share their activities with participating websites, including science gateways.
