Every two weeks, Maastricht University publications are automatically imported from Web of Science, Pubmed and Scopus and connected to your profile.
These will be validated by the faculty key user after which they will become visible on the Research Information portal.

Also want your non-UM output visible on your profile?

When you add research output from previous appointments to Pure, make sure to replace your internal UM-affiliation with the appropriate external affiliation.

  • Click Edit button next to your name.
  • Check off your internal affiliations and choose Affiliate to an external organisation.
  • Search and select the organisation that your were affiliated to at the time.

There may be multiple entries for an organisation – preferably select one with a Country label to improve your network in Pure.

Use Create external organisation if you cannot find the correct entry in the list.
