Alert: Starting in 2023, the Nanotechnology Perceptions will transition to the APA 7th edition style guide for publications and will expect that at least one author have an ORCID iD.


ORCID iDs: All published articles must include an ORCID iD for at least one author, preferably the first author (see APA 7 ed. Section 2.7). The open researcher and contributor identifier (ORCID) is a free, 16-digit, linkable, persistent digital identifier (iD) that helps keep individual researchers distinguished from one another, especially other researchers who may have the same name. The authors may want to read “What is ORCID before registering for  one.
