Description 

The ORCID is a persistent digital identifier that distinguishes the account holder from every other researcher. Through integration in research workflows such as manuscript and grant submission, the ORCID identifier supports automated linkages between the account holder and his/her professional activities ensuring that the account holder's work is recognized. Values MUST be valid ORCID identifiers in the ORCID preferred URL representation, i.e. http://orcid.org/0000-0002-1825-0097
