Your Biosketch using SciENcv

Why use an ORCiD account

ORCiD is by far the best method for entering information into your SciENcv for several reasons:

1. An ORCiD account will preserve your research information and provide you with a personal ID which is increasingly more necessary.

2. ORCiD can be set to automatically add items into your portfolio that have received article identifiers (doi)

3. SciENcv will automatically populate your My NCBI bibliography as well as your education and professional experience into your SciENcv!
