Video: Useful AI Tools for Researchers: Reshape Research Workflows

Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools are aplenty! But which ones are the most useful for scientists and researchers? In the ever-evolving world of AI tools, learn how academic research workflows are being transformed. Watch the video where our expert academic trainer, Dr. Sunaina Singh, provides a comprehensive overview of the latest AI-powered solutions that are helping students, PhD researchers, and academics.

Researchers have come a long way from manual index cards and library visits to digital databases like Google Scholar for conducting literature reviews! Now there are advanced AI tools that can automate citation tracking, identify relevant studies, and map research connections. You can access and analyze vast amounts of literature from anywhere, saving significant time and effort. But it’s not only literature reviews that are simplified. The video introduces a wide range of AI tools for general and research-specific tasks.

• Chatbots: ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and Perplexity for quick queries
• App-building tools: Bubble and Flutterflow
• Productivity platforms: Asana and ClickUp
• AI tools for literature search: ResearchRabbit, R Discovery, Scite, Litmaps
• AI tools for systematic reviews: Rayyan, DistillerSR
• AI tools for reading and summarization: Scholarcy, ChatPDF.
• AI writing assistants: Paperpal, Grammarly, Quillbot, and Jenni AI

The video highlights that AI tools can assist with brainstorming, outlining, summarizing, and managing information overload. AI can also help overcome writer’s block, generate outlines, convert notes into structured content, and adapt research into accessible formats like popular science articles. But know that AI tools should never replace critical thinking.
