YOUR RESEARCH EVIDENCE, THROUGHOUT YOUR CAREER

Capture your contributions once.
Reuse them throughout your career.

Make your research contributions visible, contextualized, and reusable. Your ONE profile becomes a living record of your research activity — publications, projects, mentoring, peer review, competences, open science, leadership, and societal engagement — so that evidence can support CVs, applications, reports, evaluations, and career transitions.

ONE profiles are generated from public scholarly metadata. They are not personal accounts. Researchers can claim access to review, correct, enrich, or manage their profile.

The problem

Your research career generates evidence everywhere.

Publications, projects, mentoring, peer review, leadership, open science, societal engagement, and institutional roles all form part of a research career.

But this evidence is usually scattered across CVs, databases, forms, reports, and application systems. Researchers repeatedly re-enter the same information, while many important contributions remain invisible or difficult to interpret.

ONE was created to turn research activity into structured evidence that can be maintained over time and reused when it matters.

Build once. Maintain over time. Reuse throughout your career.

How ONE works

From research activity to reusable evidence

ONE helps turn scattered research activity into structured evidence that can be reviewed, contextualized, and reused across different professional and assessment contexts.

Capture your contributions

Bring together publications, projects, roles, competences, mentoring, review activity, open science outputs, and other contributions that shape your research trajectory.

Organize them into a living profile

ONE structures your contributions into a profile that reflects different dimensions of research activity, not only publications and citations.

Understand them in context

Your activity is interpreted in relation to field, career stage, collaboration patterns, mobility, and other contextual signals.

Reuse evidence throughout your career

Use your structured profile to support CVs, applications, benchmarking, institutional reporting, expert discovery, and responsible assessment workflows.

First step

Start with your profile

The easiest way to begin with ONE is to review the research profile associated with your work and improve the evidence it contains.

Find or claim your profile

Search for your research profile and claim access if it is associated with your work.

Review your publication list

Check that your publications are correctly assigned and complete.

Enrich your contributions

Add roles, projects, mentoring, distinctions, activities, open science outputs, and other contributions that may not appear in publication databases.

Add competences and preferences

Make your expertise easier to understand and indicate how you are open to contributing, including peer review preferences.

Reuse your evidence

Use your profile to generate CV outputs, support applications, improve visibility, and participate in a more connected research community.

Framework preview

A framework for multidimensional research evidence

The ONE Framework organizes indicators and contextual proxies into axes, dimensions, and indicators. The live framework page is the canonical reference for the current structure.

The framework is designed to recognize a broader spectrum of research activity, including publications, collaboration, mentoring, peer review, open science practices, leadership, and societal engagement.

Infrastructure scale

Navigate research evidence from macro to micro

ONE connects millions of researcher profiles, 80,000+ institutions, and 200+ countries across multiple levels: continents, countries, regions, cities, institutions, research groups, and individual researchers.

This makes it possible to move from high-level research landscapes to individual evidence records while preserving context.

Why this matters

Designed for responsible research assessment

ONE is not a ranking system. The ONE Index is a contextual reference point that helps interpret research activity relative to field and career-stage peers. It should be read alongside the underlying dimensions and indicators, not used as a standalone judgement of quality.

Instead, the platform structures evidence so that researchers, institutions, and funders can interpret contributions more transparently and in context.
