ORCID

Create, update and affiliate your ORCID profile with ASU

ORCID® ensures that everyone who participates in research, scholarship, and innovation is uniquely identified and connected to their contributions and affiliations

What is ORCID?

ORCID is an independent non-profit organization that provides a persistent identifier – an ORCID iD – that distinguishes you from other researchers around the world and a mechanism for linking your research outputs and activities to your ORCID. ORCID is integrated into many systems used by publishers, funders, institutions, and other research-related services. If you already have an ORCID iD, we recommend you affiliate your account with ASU. This will allow you to access your ORCID profile using ASU’s single sign-on. Learn more at orcid.org.
