Add/edit profile picture
To upload/change your picture:

- Click "browse." This will take you to your folder, where you can click "upload file" and select the picture you want to use from your PC.
- Click "upload." Now the image is uploaded to your folder, and you click on the image file again to add it to your profile.
Profile picture guidelines:
- You are encouraged to have a picture on your UiA profile. With a picture, you help create a better impression of UiA, and it becomes more inviting for others to contact you.
- The face should be clearly recognisable, and you should be looking at the camera.
- The picture should have a professional character, not personal.
- The picture must meet satisfactory photographic quality (resolution, lighting, colours, sharpness, etc.).
- Employees are responsible for ensuring that the image meets these requirements.

Make sure "yes" is checked for these fields for research groups and projects. This will automatically show an overview of groups and projects registered on UiA.no where your username is added to those groups/projects.
You can also enter the name and website of external groups and projects at other institutions/websites if relevant for you.
Publications from Cristin
Here, check that "yes" is selected for displaying publications in Cristin, if applicable. If not, select "no."
