Join us for this workshop designed to explore the use of AI in academic research.

As AI continues to revolutionise the research landscape, the challenge lies in using it both responsibly and effectively.

How can we integrate AI into research workflows while maintaining ethical standards and best practice? What common mistakes should we be mindful of?

This workshop is designed for academics, research managers, PhD students and professionals exploring AI adoption in research. Whether you’re already engaged with AI or just beginning to explore its potential, this workshop will equip you with actionable insights and a strategic approach to navigating AI in research. 

You do not need any prior knowledge of AI to enjoy this event.
