Open Researcher & Contributor ID (ORCID) is an international personal directory of researchers. Each researcher has a unique ORCID iD which can be used to facilitate and enable publishing and applications, which are beneficial to the KTH researchers and KTH. As a KTH researcher you should have an ORCID iD, see decision
(only in Swedish).

if you want to know more about ORCID. To learn more about ORCID at KTH you can find information in the left menu.
If you are a researcher or doctoral student you can create an ORCID iD.
Bibliometric analyzes and evaluation of KTH's research results are facilitated by ORCID iDs. KTH sees ORCID as an internationally important initiative and would like to be an active partner in ORCID.
If you leave KTH you may also lose access to your email account. One problem with this is that you cannot receive any reminders for your password to ORCID. Therefore, we recommend that you also register another personal email address, which you have access to in the event you leave KTH.
In order to ensure transparency, accessibility and impartiality ORCID is handled and managed by ORCID Inc., a non-profit organization with headquarters in the United States.
The information in ORCID is owned by ORCID Inc. However, you are as an individual KTH researcher responsible for the information on your ORCID profile.
