ORCID provides a persistent digital identifier that helps distinguish you from other researchers and connect you with your work over time, even if your name changes, you publish in different places, or others have similar names.
An ORCID iD can help you manage your research profile, reduce duplicate data entry, and make it easier for publishers, funders, and institutions to connect you with your publications and other scholarly outputs.
Some systems can also connect ORCID with contributor roles such as CRediT, helping make your research contributions more visible.
