ORCID Renews Support of ROR to Maximize the Quality of Organization Information for Researchers - ORCID

"In recent years, the research world has shifted rapidly toward promoting the adoption of FAIR data and encouraging the use of persistent identifiers (PIDs) for a more open and interconnected research ecosystem. While there are many different types of PIDs in use, there are generally considered five key PID types:

• PIDs for people, i.e. researchers and contributors (e.g. ORCID iDs)
