The purpose of researcher identifiers and profiles is to gather all the researcher's publications and other academic activities under the correct person.

• Some profiles are formed by themselves, e.g. based on membership in an organization, e.g. TUNICRIS. For more information, see the TUNICRIS section of this guide.
• Others, on the other hand, are formed when the researcher's publications are indexed into a citation database (Scopus and Web of Science). This is how e.g. Scopus Author ID and Web of Science Researcher Profile are formed.
• Some identifiers/profiles need to be created by yourself, e.g. ORCID, Research.fi, and Google Scholar.

A researcher profile improves the evaluation and monitoring of scientific work, as it becomes easier to find publications and follow the citations received by articles. Many profiles can also be used to collect other information about your career.
