[Responsible-digital-futures] How data and AI are reshaping research categories and methods: implications for disciplinary boundaries and scientific practice

[Suchith Anand]

Dear colleagues,


Join us for an Inspiring Discussion on Data and AI in Research and the
implications for research categories and interdisciplinarity.


*How Data and AI Are Reshaping Research Categories and Methods:
Implications for Disciplinary Boundaries and Scientific Practice  *

*15 October 2025  *

*12:00 PM - 1:30 PM CEST (10:00 AM - 11:30 AM UTC)  *



The landscape of scientific research is evolving at an unprecedented pace,
fuelled by the surge of data and advancements in artificial intelligence.
These changes affect research methodologies, educational practices, and the
very fabric of various disciplines.


Join us and expert panellists Cameron Neylon, Devika Madalli and Astrid
Wissenburg for a thought-provoking panel discussion as we delve into:


- How AI and data technologies are transforming various research disciplines

- The opportunities and challenges of this new data-driven paradigm

- Strategies for interdisciplinary collaboration and effective practices in
research ethics


The Research Assessment for Ethics, Data and AI Discussion Series is a
collaborative platform uniting various initiatives dedicated to advancing
responsible research practices. Central to this effort is the Coalition for
the Advancement of Research Assessment (CoARA) ERIP Working Group, a
dynamic alliance supported by the European University Association, Science
Europe, and the European Commission, which emphasises ethical evaluation in
data and AI research. The series also features contributions from the
International Data Policy Committee of the International Science Council’s
CODATA, advocating for open science and equitable data policies, as well as
the Research Data Alliance’s Data Visitation Working Group. Additionally,
the Ethical Data Initiative, led by the University of Exeter and the
Technical University of Munich, brings a philosophical, historical, and
social perspective to the discussions on data and research ethics.


As part of the Research Assessment for Ethics, Data and AI Discussion
Series, this event aims to foster an enriching dialogue among scholars,
practitioners, and policymakers dedicated to navigating the complexities of
an increasingly data-centric world.
