@leireolabarria.bsky.social*I also keep the institutional repository updated (I have to, by law) and make sure that my PPC profile is as updated as possible (but I cannot curate it myself). But these are not optional.
Show PostPersonally, I think only ORCID and a well-curated Google Scholar profiles are a must. For ANECA purposes, I use Zenodo as my main repository and check regularly my WoS/Scopus profiles. The rest is academic/professional social media and using that for self promotion or networking is a personal choice
Show PostDina Bakhoum presents last for #EESFest study day on the Comité de conservation des monuments de l’art arabe. Their aim was to record, monitor and plan repairs for any Arab monuments of Egypt with historic or artistic interest, and Dina focuses on examples of this in Cairo.
