The identification of researchers through persistent identifiers such as Scopus Author IDs and ORCID iDs supports the accurate attribution and discovery of scholarly work. ORCID provides a persistent identifier intended to distinguish researchers and connect their contributions across research systems, while Scopus maintains author profiles that organize indexed scholarly output and associated bibliometric information. [1] [2]

Abstract

Amanda Reis is identified in the supplied academic profile information as a researcher affiliated with Universidade Federal de Pelotas, Brazil, in the field of Materials Science. The profile is associated with Scopus Author ID 60714506500 and ORCID iD 0009-0004-1204-6812. These identifiers provide mechanisms for distinguishing the researcher and connecting scholarly records across academic information systems. [1] [2]

Within the context of the World Science Awards, the profile may be considered as an academic recognition record describing the researcher’s institutional affiliation and disciplinary area. Because publication counts, citation totals, h-index values, and a verified publication list were not included in the supplied data, no numerical bibliometric performance claims are made on this page.

Keywords

Amanda Reis; Materials Science; Universidade Federal de Pelotas; Brazil; scholarly research; academic profile; research identification; Scopus; ORCID; World Science Awards.

Introduction

Materials science is an interdisciplinary research field concerned with the relationships among material structure, processing, properties, performance, and application. Its scope extends across metals, ceramics, polymers, composites, electronic materials, biomaterials, nanostructured systems, and other classes of engineered and functional materials. Research in the field commonly combines principles from physics, chemistry, engineering, and related disciplines.

Academic recognition profiles benefit from clear researcher identification because similar names can occur across institutions and publication databases. Persistent identifiers, including ORCID, are designed to help distinguish individual researchers, while bibliographic databases such as Scopus provide structured author records that can be used to discover indexed scholarly publications and citation information. [1] [2]

Research Profile

The supplied profile identifies Amanda Reis as being affiliated with Universidade Federal de Pelotas in Brazil and associates her academic subject area with Materials Science. The institutional affiliation establishes the organizational context of the profile, while the stated subject area provides the disciplinary framework for interpreting the research record.

The use of persistent researcher identifiers is particularly relevant for academic profiles because publication databases may contain records for researchers with similar or identical names. ORCID describes its identifier as a persistent identifier for researchers, while Scopus provides author-level records for indexed research outputs. [1] [2]

Research Contributions

The supplied information establishes Materials Science as the subject area associated with Amanda Reis. Materials science research can address the development, characterization, processing, and application of materials, with contributions evaluated according to factors such as methodological rigor, reproducibility, novelty, technical relevance, and the usefulness of resulting knowledge.

No specific research papers, laboratory projects, patents, datasets, technologies, or individual discoveries were supplied for this profile. Accordingly, this article does not attribute particular scientific findings to Amanda Reis without corresponding bibliographic evidence. This approach is consistent with the principle that academic recognition profiles should distinguish verified publication information from general disciplinary descriptions.

Publications

The supplied information identifies a Scopus Author ID but does not provide a verified list of publications, article titles, journals, publication years, citation counts, or DOI identifiers attributable to Amanda Reis. The Scopus author record is therefore the appropriate external source for reviewing the indexed publication record associated with the stated author identifier. [2]

For academic evaluation, individual publications should be assessed using bibliographic details that permit verification of authorship, venue, publication date, and persistent identifiers such as DOIs where available. Crossref and DOI infrastructure provide mechanisms for identifying and linking scholarly publications through persistent digital identifiers. [3]

Research Impact

Research impact can be considered through several complementary dimensions, including scholarly dissemination, citation activity, collaboration, methodological or technological contributions, and broader academic or societal relevance. Citation indicators can provide useful quantitative information, but they are not by themselves a complete measure of research quality or significance.

For the present profile, the available information confirms researcher identifiers, institutional affiliation, country, and subject area, but does not provide verified numerical values for documents, citations, or h-index. Those indicators should therefore be obtained directly from the relevant author record before being used in an evaluative context. [2]

Award Suitability

The profile is presented in relation to the World Science Awards and identifies Materials Science as the relevant research area. On the information supplied, the principal basis for consideration is the documented academic identity and disciplinary affiliation of Amanda Reis. A complete award assessment would ordinarily require additional evidence, such as a verified publication record, research outputs, citation information, documented contributions, and the specific eligibility and evaluation criteria established by the award organizers.

The distinction between profile identification and award adjudication is important. An academic profile can organize publicly available researcher information, whereas an award decision requires an independent assessment against defined criteria. The World Science Awards website should therefore be consulted for the applicable award framework and current program information. [4]

Conclusion

Amanda Reis is identified in the supplied academic information as a Materials Science researcher affiliated with Universidade Federal de Pelotas in Brazil. Her profile is associated with Scopus Author ID 60714506500 and ORCID iD 0009-0004-1204-6812. These identifiers provide useful reference points for distinguishing and locating the corresponding scholarly record. [1] [2]

In the context of the Innovative Research Award and World Science Awards, the profile provides a structured basis for academic identification and recognition. Quantitative research metrics and specific publication-level achievements have not been supplied and are consequently not asserted as established facts in this article.
