AI-Assisted Research & Future of publishing
AI agents are now part of how many researchers analyze data, write code, and survey the literature. The standards for publishing that work are still taking shape, and they vary between journals.
This session brings together the editors who set those standards:
Holden Thorp, Editor-in-Chief, Science
Magdalena Skipper, Editor-in-Chief, Nature
John Pham, Editor-in-Chief, Cell
Part 1: What journals expect today (Q&A)
How editors and reviewers evaluate AI-assisted work at submission. Topics include what to disclose and how to document it, where AI use raises questions of originality and reproducibility, and the issues that most often come up in review.
Part 2: Where this is heading (moderated panel)
How peer review, authorship, and reproducibility standards may change as agents take on more of the analytical work, and what that means for how labs should work now.
Who it's for: undergrads, associates, grad students, postdocs, staff scientists, and PIs, both wet-lab and computational, whether you already use AI tools or are still deciding how far to rely on them.
