Using AI in Research Administration

Led by:
Sarah Martonick, Director, Sponsored Programs, University of Idaho
Dr. Barrie Robison, Director of the Institute for Interdisciplinary Data Sciences, University of Idaho
We will host a discussion session to gather and share information on how the Research Administration community is using or is planning to use Artificial Intelligence tools to support their work. The co-hosts will begin with a simple framework for categorizing RA tasks and then demonstrate one to two practical applications that we have implemented at the UI. These applications are intended to spark discussion regarding existing and potential use cases among the participants. We will also emphasize known and potential strengths and weaknesses of AI as RA use cases are discussed.
Objectives: Share practical examples of “AI for RA” that we have implemented and promote the exchange of ideas regarding how Artificial Intelligence is currently, or might soon, change Research Administration workflows.
