Artificial Intelligence is transforming the research landscape, enabling researchers and institutions to accelerate discovery and generate deeper insights. However, the increasing use of general AI tools in academia brings challenges around accuracy, lack of verifiable sources, and risks to research integrity, especially in contexts like India where concerns around retractions and unverified claims are growing.
This webinar will explore these challenges and emphasize the need for AI solutions built on trusted, research-grade data. As part of the session, we will showcase LeapSpace, an AI-powered research workspace designed for academia that combines responsible AI with high-quality scholarly data.
Through a live demonstration and a researcher perspective, the session will highlight how researchers and institutions can accelerate discovery, identify collaborations, analyze research trends, and explore funding opportunities while ensuring insights are reliable and grounded in trusted data.
