Aalto University is introducing ORCID’s Researcher Connect service

Aalto University is implementing the Researcher Connect service from ORCID, which facilitates data transfer between researchers' ORCID profiles and the university's research information management system, ACRIS.
Orcid

Researcher Connect helps identify researchers who have an ORCID iD but have not yet linked it to ACRIS. Once the connection is made, Aalto's integration can automatically add employment and publication information to the researcher's ORCID account and retrieve publication information from ORCID to complement the researcher's data in ACRIS. This reduces manual work and improves data quality.

Connecting an ORCID account to an ACRIS profile is available to researchers and doctoral candidates working at Aalto University who have an active ACRIS profile.

Master's and bachelor's students, alumni and former employees or employees who do not have an ACRIS profile cannot currently link ORCID via ACRIS, but they can create an ORCID account and use it independently with publishers and funders, for example.
