Happy 2026 US Researchers!
Here is your friendly reminder that the NIH did have time to invent not one - but 2 (two!) new required Biosketch formats. Ignore the one from the summer. Starting January 2026 your BioSketch MUST be made through the ScienV portal at the National Library of Medicine. (Yes that still exists, it's just the Goddard Library that is being shut down and the books thrown out).
I assume the NIH came back from the longest shutdown in US government history as surprised by this as we are, so there is a glitch or two.
If your ORCID won't connect (which will completely prevent you from saving and printing a BioSketch) you can check it this way.
Log completely out of your internet browser or use "IgconoYolo mode"
...you'll find that in the upper right corner of your Doogle Chrome AI enabled browser....
Make a note on your blog to investigate your 28 compromised passwords and wonder if that has anything to do with the alert you received from Chase yesterday of them rejecting an attempted $228,000 purchase. Definitely investigate. I figured the Chase thing was Phishing...?
But THEN go to the National Library of Medicine https://account.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/
And try logging in through your ORCID. In my case I found a totally new account registered to -
...which....is neither my email...nor a valid email format. I don't have a lot of publications or grants, but this NLM account was linked to zero. And I have more than zero.
I reported this to the capital letters of National Library Medicine dash support@nlm.nih.gov - which I'm sure they're very happy to have listed publicly on an open to access blog.
Boom! Now my fictitious NLM account is gone and it can be registered to my ScienV portal -I think.
