2.3. Import From Online Source
This option is most preferable because this method can save you time, minimize effort, and reduce data-entry errors. It can be used for any kind of research output that is published in PubMed, Web of Science or ORCID.
To import a research output from online source:
- Click on the Add content button:
Or click on the triangle next to Personal in the header, select Research outputs, and then click on the 
button:
2. Select Import from online source. At PMU you can import your data from PubMed, Web of Science and ORCID.
3. Select the online source you want to import from. In this example, we selected PubMed.
4. Enter the information you want to search for, such as PubMed ID or your name.
Please ensure you always review the guidelines for the correct format of the information you intend to look for.
5. Click on the Import button located at the bottom of the article you wish to import into Pure.
6. Now, you can view the publication details. Do not modify the information displayed here; simply click on Import and review at the bottom of the window:
1 7. In the Research output editor window, you need to manage these fields:
1. Peer-reviewed:
Whether the publication underwent a peer-reviewed process or not (peer-reviewed or not peer-reviewed):
Click on Change template if you realise that the subtype of the Research output is incorrect. For example, if you have selected Original article but need to add a Review article, you can easily switch between template types without losing any of the data you have already filled in:
2. Contributors and affiliations:
Pure automatically adds every contributor with their affiliations to these fields.
Here, you only need to manage your author role and affiliation(s).
Click on Edit on the right side to select the role (type of authorship) you contributed to the publication. In the affiliations field, include only those affiliations associated with the publication. You can delete them by clicking on the minus button, and you can add internal and external organizations by clicking on the Add organizational unit button:
3. Managing organisational unit:
Select your internal organisational unit to this field by clicking on the "house with a plus" button. External organisations cannot be added in this field. (In some cases, RM may assign a different internal organisation during the
validation process).
4. Research topic:
Assign on or more research topics for the following publication from publication year 2025 onwards: Original article, review article, case report, letter to the editor, editorial, short comment/notes, book, book chapter. For other categories, such as abstracts, corrections or publications in which only PMU teaching hospitals are involved as internal organizations, no topic assignment is required.
8. Set the workflow status For validation and then click on Save.
In the next step, the imported research output undergoes validation by the RM.
