Altmetric: ORCID search function

Users of Altmetric are now able to search the database by ORCID iD.


ORCID (Open Researcher and Contributor ID) provides a registry of unique identifiers for researchers, ensuring that they can be linked to and recognised for their work.

This new Altmetric search functionality means that users will be able to identify how content associated with a specific identify has been shared and mentioned. Altmetric tracks online activity and mentions across mainstream and social media.
