get_work
Retrieve comprehensive scholarly work details including full author lists, abstracts, topics, funding, and references using OpenAlex ID or DOI.
Instructions
Get COMPLETE details about a specific work by OpenAlex ID or DOI. Unlike search results which are summarized, this returns ALL information including: complete author list (first, middle, and last authors with positions, institutions, ORCID, corresponding author flags), full abstract (reconstructed), all topics, complete bibliographic data, funding/grants, keywords, and reference lists. Use this when you need detailed information about a specific paper, especially for identifying PIs (often last author) or corresponding authors.
