What is ORCID?
ORCID provides researchers with a unique identifier – an ORCID iD – plus a mechanism for linking their research outputs and activities to their ORCID iD.
ORCID is integrated into many systems used by publishers, funders, institutions, and other research-related services.

Connect your ORCID iD to Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility
When you connect your ORCID iD, you grant us to receive your verified ORCID iD [and other functions]. Use this link: https://misportal.jlab.org/orcid/ to authorize Jefferson Lab to receive your ORCID iD and use it in our systems.
Why register? Your ORCID iD:
- Distinguishes you and ensures your research outputs and activities are correctly attributed to you
- Reliably and easily connects you with your contributions and affiliations
- Reduces form-filling: you enter data once, have it reused often)
- Improves recognition and discoverability for you and your research outputs
- Is interoperable: it works with many institutions, funders, and publishers
- Is persistent: you can use it throughout your research career
Having an ORCID iD is also a requirement of many journal manuscript submission systems and grant application forms.
