Question 1

Who can join the PhiDoc network?

Accepted Answer

Any Moroccan researcher or doctoral student, anywhere in the world, and any researcher of any nationality working in a Moroccan institution. That covers PhD students, postdocs, faculty, lab directors and researchers in industry.

Question 2

Is my profile public by default?

Accepted Answer

No. Every PhiDoc profile is private until you explicitly turn on a public page. Only profiles whose owner opted in appear in this directory or on a public URL.

Question 3

What does a public researcher page show?

Accepted Answer

What you choose: your name, your field, your institution and laboratory, your thesis subject, your keywords and the academic links you add, such as ORCID, Google Scholar or ResearchGate. Private information such as your email is never published.

Question 4

Can I contact a researcher directly?

Accepted Answer

Yes, through PhiDoc messaging once you have an account. Nobody publishes a personal email address, and anyone can block or report a member who misuses it.

Question 5

Does it cost anything to join?

Accepted Answer

No. Creating a profile, appearing in the network and messaging other researchers are free. Premium adds research tools, not network access.
