What is get_researcher_profile?

Fetches a detailed UCL researcher profile from https://profiles.ucl.ac.uk by url_id. Returns contact and research information plus up to 100 recent publications sorted by date, including authorship, DOI, journal, type, and other available publication details. It runs on Notte's browser infrastructure and returns structured JSON, so you can call it like any other API — pass url_id and get the result back without maintaining a scraper.
