Predatory Publishing

In order to be recognized for all your research and creative endeavors, you do not want to be confused with any other individuals.  One solution is to standardize your author identity by creating an official author profile with ORCID or Google Scholar.

Google Scholar: Profiles

ORCID

ORCID provides a persistent digital identifier for authors that you own and control, and distinguishes you from every other researcher.  You can connect your digital ID with your professional information - affiliations, grants, publications, and more.  You can use your ORCID ID to share your information with other systems, ensuring you get recognition for all your contributions, saving you time and reducing the risk of errors.
