Managing your CONVERGE account

Editing your profile

Where to change your name, title, organization, contact details, password, and documents.

Updated 9/19/2026

Everything about your account lives in Profile & Settings — open it from the user menu in the top right.

What you can change yourself

  • Name & title — how you appear across CONVERGE and in any email we send you. Academic prefixes (Dr., Prof.) are stripped from your display name automatically.
  • Organization & department — the organization you would apply through.
  • Contact email — where match alerts and digests are delivered.
  • Password — change it any time under Change Password.
  • CV / biosketch — upload a PDF and CONVERGE extracts expertise terms and prior funding from it.

Your edits are protected

Anything you type by hand is preserved. If you correct a research area or remove an expertise term, automatic enrichment will not silently overwrite it later.

Save triggers a fresh look

Saving profile changes re-runs your matching, so updated matches usually appear within a few minutes.
