People in DataCite Commons

Search People

Use the People tab to search for people in DataCite Commons. The people search uses the ORCID API and its query options described here: API Tutorial: Searching the ORCID registry. To start, enter a search term in the search bar.

Here is an example search for a person in DataCite Commons: https://commons.datacite.org/orcid.org?query=Alice+Meadows

In the search results, click on the name of the person to view their profile. The page provides insight into data level metrics of the works by the researcher including the total number of Works, Citations, Views and Downloads. Information from the ORCID record of the person is also imported including the name, related links, other identifiers, other profiles and location.

The record also displays the employment and accessibility achievements of the individual.

Related Works

Works are displayed at the bottom of the page when the individual’s ORCID iD appears in the DOI metadata as a Creator or Contributor. The works can be filtered by: Co-Author, Publication Year, Work Type, License, Language, Field of Science, Registration Agency, Field of Science, Repository and Repository Type.
