Once you have published, there are ways to share and promote your research! But first - sometimes it is hard to associate the manuscript with the correct researcher/author. There are ways to disambiguate names and one of them is using a consistent name as an author when you publish. Different biomedical literature databases try to disambiguate names with author-identifiers and search tags.
And listed below are also some tools to help promote and share your research. For questions, email Dianne Johnson.

The institution uses open-source software created by Harvard University called Profiles. Programmers in the Clinical Translational Sciences Institute manages the software at Atrium Wake Forest Baptist Health/WFUSM. The scholarly communications librarian helps with the publications section in each profile.
While faculty members are ultimately responsible for updating profiles, they can request a delegate. Publications are pulled daily from PubMed but the more one interacts with Profiles, the better the system will recognize the author and pull the correct publications.
