You can easily connect your ORCID to PubMed, SciENcv, and Europe PubMed Central, to integrate your data, distinguish your work from authors with similar names, and ensure that all your work is reflected even if published under a previous name. You can also sign-in to My NCBI using ORCID and seamlessly exchange data between ORCID and Web of Science.
Once you have an ORCID remember to use it! Add your ORCID to email signatures, online profiles, manuscript submissions, peer reviews, grant applications, and more. If a journal or conference you are submitting to does not have a way to include an ORCID with your information, consider contacting the editors or organizers and requesting that they make it an option. Check out 'How to Build your ORCID profile' for more info on how to update and use your ORCID account.
