Webinar // Why and How Should Researchers Manage Their Digital Identity? 

  • Event Type: Webinar
  • Dates: March 17, 2026
  • Schedule: 11:00 a.m.–12:00 p.m.
  • Location: Online

Given the proliferation of scientific literature, managing one’s digital identity is a strategic challenge for every researcher.
After discussing the origins of this exponential growth, we will explore the elements researchers can use to build their digital identity: persistent identifiers, IdHAL, ORCID accounts, online CVs, and social media.  
This webinar is not a training session; rather, it offers a comprehensive overview of digital identity.
This presentation can be usefully supplemented by two other, more practical webinars: one on creating the IdHAL and the HAL CV, and another on configuring the ORCID profile. 


As part of UM’s Open Science policy, UM’s research support team is launchinga series of webinarsfor the scientific community.

Theseshortworkshops(20 to 40 minutes of presentation followed by a discussion period) will alternate between theoretical presentations and practical demonstrations on Open Science, scientific publications, and research data.
