Because multiple researchers in the same or different fields may have the same first and last names, there is an author ambiguity problem within the scholarly research community. To circumvent this problem, the idea of assigning each researcher a "unique author identifier" comes into play.

It is important to distinguish your body of research and scholarly works from other authors, for example to demonstrate impact to funding bodies or to facilitate collaborations with other researchers. This can be challenging particularly for authors with common surnames. The Orcid and ResearchID tools are available to help you disambiguate yourself from other researchers and to compile and showcase your own work for the scholarly community at large.

Zenodo is a general-purpose open-access repository developed under the European OpenAIRE program and operated by CERN.

It allows researchers to deposit research papers, data sets, research software, reports, and any other research related digital artefacts. Each submission is assigned a persistent digital object identifier (DOI), which makes the stored items easily findable, accessible and citeable.

Why use Zenodo?

• Safe — your research is stored safely in CERN’s Data Centre.
• Trusted —  operated by CERN and OpenAIRE to ensure that everyone can join in Open Science.
• Citeable — all uploads are assigned a Digital Object Identifier (DOI), to make them citable and trackable.
• No waiting time — uploads are made available online straight away, and your DOI is registered within seconds.
• Open or closed — share anonymized  trial data with only medical professionals via their restricted access mode.
• Versioning — easily update your dataset with their versioning feature.
• Usage statistics — all uploads display standards compliant usage statistics.

A Citation Map is a graphical depiction showing the citation relationships (cited references and citing articles) between a paper and other papers using several visualization tools.

Using citation mapping, you can analyse which researchers are citing you. You can also set up a graphical representation of the papers that you have cited your published work.

To view a citation map simply click on the title of a publication within a results list in Web of Science. From the menu on the left choose 'View Citation Map' and select the citation direction required (forward, back or both).

Organizations and publishers often issue 'Calls for Papers' on a specific topic, either for upcoming conferences or symposiums or for a special topics issue of a journal publication.
