A researcher profile identifies an individual researcher and their work, usually listing:

• a selection of their publications
• other research activities
• further information such as metrics.

You’ll probably have more than one researcher profile. Some are created for you, for example Massey Expertise and .

You need to create others yourself, for example  and .

It’s important to be consistent with the name format you use for all your profiles, publications and presentations.

Massey expertise database

All Massey researchers automatically have a researcher profile in the Massey expertise database.

Elements

You should add your publications in Elements. They will be listed under the Research Outputs heading on your Massey researcher profile.

You can also link your ORCID, Scopus ID and Researcher ID profiles. You can do this in the top menu under My Profile >������ٳپ��Բ��� > Automatic claiming.

Once you’ve done this, your publication lists from these profiles will eventually be shared with Elements.

When you add publications to Elements, you also have the option to upload the full text (where copyright allows). This provides open access to your work through .

Links will show on your expertise profile and in search engine results.

ORCID

An ORCID is a unique identifier, and is essential because it:

• ensures all your research outputs are correctly attributed to you
• is required by many funders and publishers
• increases your visibility and impact

Register as soon as you start your research:

1. . Enter your details and add your works. Maintain regularly if you can.
2. Verify your affiliation to Massey at , which adds credibility. Login using the Tuakiri option.
