ZR Build your researcher profile

Are you seeking to establish or refresh your online researcher profile? There are many online digital tools that can assist you to achieve this. In this coffee course, we will show you three digital tools that will help to uniquely identify you as a researcher, explicitly link you to your research outputs, and contribute to increasing your visibility in the scholarly environment.

The tools that we will explore are ORCID, Mendeley and Kudos. These three options are free and will boost your scholarly profile, showcase your publications and research projects and help get you noticed by potential collaborators.

Course Dates

This course ran from Monday, 13 November to Wednesday, 15 November 2017, through this blog but is accessible online to anyone interested. There are 3 blog posts that will take about 10-15 minutes to work through.
