SciENcv/My Bibliography and the Biosketch: Home

You can also link eraCommons (follow directions in the box Link accounts to SciENcv) to enter information including education, work experience and award history into Biosketch.

*Enter publications not found in PubMed or ORCID manually by clicking Add Citation>Manual citations for articles that do not appear in PubMed. To link this account follow directions.

Symplectic Elements (our new faculty tracking system) includes Altmetric's score for each publication if one exists. A Guide to using Almetric in your NIH Biosketch has suggestions on how to include Altmetric scores from your significant publications.

The changes to Biosketch include:

• extends page limit from 4 to 5 pages
• a list of publications can be included in both the personal statement and contributions to science sections
• choose up to 5 significant contributions to science
• optional url link to full list of published work in PubMed via MyBibliography
• free access to SciENcv tool to help create a new Biosketch with presets to follow the new requirements

What can you do if you have multiple accounts?
To unify multiple accounts write to the NCBI help desk at info@ncbi.nlm.nih.gov and include the following in your message:

• NCBI username,
• eRA Commons username (if any)
• any email addresses that may be associated with your account(s)

The help desk will merge these accounts into a single account. All existing linked accounts will transfer to the single account. The single account will contain all contents of the accounts including saved searches, collections, bibliography entries and any other information stored in NCBI.

My NCBI users can grant access to delegates to view and manage their SciENcv profiles. The delegates will then be able to create, modify or delete the information in the SciENcv account. The delegate must sign up for their own My NCBI account first.

• Sign in to My NCBI account
• Click on your username on the NCBI header (top right corner of page)
• Access the Account Settings page
• Go to the “Delegates” section and click Add a Delegate link
• Enter delegate’s email address; then click OK
• Assigned delegate will receive an email with a URL that will bring individual to an access confirmation page
• Delegates must sign into their personal My NCBI account before replying to the confirmation email.
• Delegates click on the Confirm Connection button.
  Under “Collections” the delegate will see a link for the bibliography/SciENcv which they can access as well as their own bibliography (ies)
