Artificial intelligence is transforming how research is conducted—from literature reviews and data analysis to writing and dissemination. But with opportunity comes complexity: ethical considerations, integrity challenges, and the risk of overreliance.
In this live session, Dr. Juliana Peloche will unpack the realities of using AI in academic research, helping PhD candidates and beyond navigate the tools, the pitfalls, and the critical decisions they’ll face.
