Responsible AI in Research: Implementing Best practice, Ethics and Integrity
06/11/2025
About
Artificial intelligence is transforming research: accelerating discovery, generating new insights and reshaping how researchers work. But alongside these opportunities come important questions: how can we ensure AI is used responsibly and how do we protect research integrity when technology moves faster than regulation?
This session will explore how to use AI tools in research without compromising ethics, rigour or public trust. We’ll look at how to avoid bias, maintain critical thinking and creativity, protect sensitive data, and ensure accountability and transparency. Whether you’re already working with AI or just starting to explore its potential, you’ll leave with practical strategies to use AI responsibly and with integrity.
