Abstract of the Workshop: 

A Global Workshop on Artificial Intelligence in Academic Research Writing

The rapidly evolving landscape of Artificial Intelligence (AI) is transforming the way researchers conceptualise, draft, refine, and publish their scholarly work. While the journey from a research idea to a published manuscript has traditionally been long, complex, and often overwhelming — particularly for early-career researchers and academicians-  AI-powered tools are now redefining this process, making it more accessible, efficient, and impactful than ever before.

This workshop, designed for a diverse global audience of researchers, faculty members, doctoral scholars, postgraduate students, and Industry people, aims to provide a comprehensive, hands-on understanding of how leading AI tools — including ChatGPT, Claude, Grammarly, and Paperpal — can serve as intelligent co-pilots at every critical stage of academic manuscript preparation. Participants will explore how AI can assist in transforming nascent research ideas into well-structured scholarly arguments, developing coherent introductions and literature reviews, refining academic language for clarity, precision, and journal-appropriate tone, managing citations and formatting references in accordance with varied journal style guides, and navigating the often intricate process of journal selection, submission, and responding to reviewer comments.

Beyond technical skill-building, the workshop will also engage participants in a reflective discussion on the responsible and ethical use of AI in research — addressing concerns around originality, authorship transparency, and adherence to evolving journal and institutional policies on AI-assisted writing.

By the conclusion of this workshop, participants will be equipped not only with practical tool-based competencies but also with a nuanced understanding of how to integrate AI meaningfully and ethically into their research workflow — significantly reducing time-to-publication while enhancing the overall quality and impact of their scholarly contributions
