• Streamlining fund reporting, evaluation and financial audit processes will allow more time for scientists to focus on research itself.

• Chinese authorities can also facilitate international collaboration by removing administrative barriers to healthy academic exchange.

• Implementing measures that better encourage researchers to share their data and research would benefit their participation in the global movement towards openly sharing data.

…because non-Chinese typically find Chinese names difficult to pronounce and remember, promotion of the Open Researcher and Contributor ID (ORCID) in China will be essential. ORCID is unique to each researcher and allows unambiguous identification of researcher records and contributions for the purposes of peer review selection, as well as ultimately individual-focused assessment exercises.

• Researchers can register and use ORCID for free of charge whether or not their employer is a member

• ORCID is an opt-in system. The researcher controls their record: registration, linked information, privacy and access settings

• An ORCID iD and associated information stays with an individual throughout their career irrespective of affiliation

update author ORCID record

• Over 240,000 articles have been submitted to CrossRef with an associated ORCID iD

• These are starting to flow into the ORCID registry

• Researchers who use their ORCID iD when they publish will not need to manually update their record in ORCID or in connected systems

Summary• Chinese research community is in the

turning point in transforming from resource-based to more value-added model, where reducing administrative burdens is imperative

• ORCID facilitates auto-update process by working with 300+ member organizations, creating a mechanism of building academic trust

• We look forward to more organizations to participate in ORCID member community
