VDU CRIS researcher profile synchronization with ORCID

University researchers have an international unique researcher identifier ORCID, which serves as a personal reference of the researcher, a profile on the Internet, connecting the researcher’s scientific activity and its results and creating links with the institutions that collect and use ORCID: publishers, databases, repositories and other science-related organizations. VDU became a member of the ORCID organization in 2023, and the University Research Management System (VDU CRIS) became dissemination channel for ORCID. It possible to create links between the VDU CRIS researcher’s profile and the ORCID researcher’s profile, so that researchers do not have to manually fill in and update the same information about themselves, scientific publications and other scientific activities, already filled in VDU CRIS. Instructions on how to do this are provided on the library’s website – main menu Mokslas -> Mokymai, pagalbos->VDU CRIS profilio informacijos eksportas į ORCID. For information export, login data to ORCID is required. The library staff will be happy to help if you visit the library.

The integration of two open science infrastructures, the possibility of exporting researchers’ profiles to the international science infrastructure, which leads to greater international visibility of the University’s researchers and easier identification, collection and dissemination of the results of the scientific activities of VMU researchers, was implemented and financed by the European Union funds and Economic Recovery and Resilience for 2021-2027 increase with the funds of the “New Generation Lithuania” measure and the funds of the state budget of the Republic of Lithuania. The project “Strengthening the international competitiveness of VMU in the Transform4Europe alliance network of European universities” (No. 10-005-P-0005).
