For scientists · Your profile

Show the skills and roles behind your research.

Build a profile of your skills and your role in specific research. Link a publication, protocol or project, or describe other research experience. Request confirmation from a colleague who knows your role; for publication-linked work, Benchpro may suggest co-authors. You can also find colleagues through ORCID search.

Colleague confirmation applies to a specific skill, role and research source—not overall proficiency.

Beyond the author list

The byline does not say who used which method.

Your publication list shows research associated with your name. Your profile adds skills and your role in specific research, helping potential collaborators and employers assess your experience.

Illustrative comparison. A skill entry adds your account of your role; it does not rewrite the publication or certify proficiency.

Publication to personal record

Link research. Add skills. Request confirmation.

Start with your research experience, add skills and your role, and request confirmation from a colleague who knows the work.

    Choose a colleague who knows your role and check their ORCID or contact details. Submitting creates a request, not proof of email delivery. They can confirm or skip; skipping records no decision and is final.

Status
Confirmed by a colleague
Illustrative public entry for one skill, research source and confirmed role.
Publication-linked
A publication or DOI is shown when one has been linked to the entry. The source alone does not prove participation.
Awaiting response
A confirmation request has no response yet. This is not confirmation.
Confirmed by colleagues
A colleague confirmed this specific skill, role and research experience—not every entry or the highest role on a grouped skill.

Colleague confirmation adds context to your account; it is not certification of overall proficiency.
