Practical AI for Researchers: Responsible Use in Writing and Publishing

Victoria Corless, Associate Director Community Development, EU (Taylor & Francis Group)

On 30 June 2026, the ENCATC Research Platform offered researchers a practical introduction to artificial intelligence tools in writing and publishing, grounded in current publishing practice and ethics. As large language models such as ChatGPT and Gemini become more common in academia, many researchers remain uncertain about what counts as appropriate use, and the session addressed questions of academic integrity, publisher policies, data protection and researchers' responsibilities as scholars. In the keynote presentation, Victoria Corless brought the perspective of a major academic publisher on the responsible use of AI in research and publishing, with particular attention to ethics, transparency and disclosure. A discussion and Q&A with participants closed the session.
