Join the ASN Student Interest Group for “Leveraging AI for Scientific Research and Publishing Success” an exciting event designed to help students and young professionals navigate the rise of ethical artificial intelligence (AI) use in research and industry. AI is a prevalent tool in our society that can be leveraged to promote productivity, reduce the time dedicated to consuming tasks, and streamline communication across institutions. However, the abundance of AI programs and improper use can hinder success, cause uncertainty, and undermine the rigors of scientific research. The objective of this seminar at NUTRITION 2025 is to provide a Professional Development session where attendees can learn to identify opportunities to use AI in their career, learn how to properly acknowledge the contributions of AI, and understand ethical concerns of using AI in research and industry and navigate the future.
