Roadmap:
1) Replace user profile picture with linkedin profile pic
2) Populate openscholar bio/cv with linkedin info
3) Populate user profile fields like first name, last name, location, phone number, date of birth, address........ from linkedin account
4) make the module openscholar feature so that scholars can enable/disable the feature as per their needs.
5) each scholar should be able to configure the widgets.

Known issues:
