NIH will require all Senior/Key Personnel to enter their ORCID iD into SciENcv in the Persistent Identifier (PID) section of the Common Forms.
If you have not registered for an ORCID iD, please visit Registration and Delegates - ORCID - BeckerGuides at Becker Medical Library (wustl.edu). The full NIH notice can be found here.
Obtaining an ORCID iD is a quick online process.
Go to the Register page.
If you have additional questions, you can find a step-by-step outline on ORCID's website: How do I register for an ORCID iD?
Institutional Single Sign On (SSO) using your WUSTL key is available. This option is only for those individuals who already have an ORCID iD. If you do not have an ORCID iD, you will be asked to create one. This new functionality will make it easier for authors to sign-in to ORCID.
To sign-in to your ORCID account using your institutional account, select the Institutional Account tab from the ORCID Sign In page. This will redirect to the WashU Key page to sign-in to ORCID using your institutional account.
Authors can unlink their ORCID accounts from Washington University using the Account Settings feature. Scroll to the Alternate Sign-in Accounts section and select the trash can icon next to the account to unlink it.
You can grant permission to one or more trusted individuals to update your ORCID record, acting as a delegate or proxy for managing your account. "Trusted Individuals" can be added as delegates to an ORCID account to allow for editing and updating of an ORCID account and profile. Trusted Individuals must have an ORCID account.
