Digital Science Host 2016 ORCID UK Members Meeting
The first ORCID UK members’ meeting will be held in our London office from 9.00am – 1.00pm on Thursday May 26th.
The meeting will start with an ORCID Town Hall session for members in Europe, the Middle East, and Africa (also available via webinar for UK members unable to attend in person and those outside the UK) followed by presentations from ORCID staff on ORCID adoption and use by the research community, including examples of ORCID integrations in funder, publishing, and research information systems. There will also be ample opportunity for discussion and Q&A.
For those that aren’t already familiar with ORCID, the organization’s vision is a world in which all those who participate in research, scholarship, and innovation are uniquely connected with their contributions and affiliations across disciplines, borders, and time. ORCID collaborate with all stakeholders in the research community (including Digital Science!) to connect researchers with their contributions.
Symplectic, ReadCube, Altmetric, Figshare, Overleaf and ÜberResearch all have integrations with ORCID. Digital Science has a strong commitment to facilitating interoperability with independent standards, identifiers, and metadata initiatives.
We are really looking forward to hosting the event and hope to hear some exciting discussions about the future of this increasingly popular research identifier. Follow @ORCID_Org, @Symplectic, @Overleaf, @Altmetric, @ReadCube, @UberResearch and @figshare on Twitter to make sure you don’t miss any of the latest updates.
