Dimitra Lountzi-Derksen, TwentyOne Skills
Artificial intelligence is increasingly influencing academic writing and research workflows. This seminar is aimed at researchers who already have experience with AI tools and want to use them more strategically and responsibly in academic contexts.
Participants will explore how AI can support key stages of academic writing, including literature research, structuring arguments, and text revision. The seminar also addresses essential considerations such as copyright, data protection, and ethical AI use in research and publishing. Rather than focusing on individual tools, the session emphasizes general principles and best practices for integrating AI into established academic workflows while maintaining academic integrity.
This seminar is a collaboration between academics and TwentyOne Skills, e-learning specialist for research and science. It will be held in english.
