The Outputs Development team at the University of Liverpool is pleased to host a special session with Springer Nature, exploring the rapidly evolving role of artificial intelligence (AI) in academic writing and publishing.
Led by Jeffrey Robens, a senior trainer from the Nature Portfolio, this online session will provide both practical insights for researchers and the unique perspective of publishers as AI transforms the academic publishing landscape.
Over the course of this interactive event, participants will:
- Gain an introduction to AI and AI literacy in research contexts
- Explore challenges such as hallucinations, errors, and biases in AI systems
- Learn how prompts shape outputs and how AI tools can support literature reviews
- Hear about emerging publisher policies on AI use in manuscripts, peer review, and figure/text preparation
The session will conclude with an open Q&A, giving attendees the chance to engage directly with the speaker.
This is a unique opportunity to hear how one of the world’s leading publishers is approaching AI, and what it means for the future of academic research and publishing.
