On 23rd May 2013, I participated in the ORCID CodeFest (see also the details in the ORCID website) and won the first prize to attend the ODIN Codefest in CERN.

My project was about adding support to the ISAcreator Java-based tool for searching a user’s ORCID and retrieve all their information based on the ORCID API.

You can read more about the ORCID codefest and about my project in these blog post by Eamonn Maguire.

In summary, I added code to search for an ORCID record via a dedicated interface:

and then, the user information is automatically added from the ORCID profile:
