We agree there needs to be a greater focus on AI and research integrity. As James Parry, our chief innovation officer, says in the article: “AI opens up new opportunities for research, but also raises questions on its safe, rigorous and ethical use."
UKRIO will be expanding its current work on AI as one of our key workstreams in 2024/25, to help provide solutions for these complex research integrity challenges.
Research integrity and trust in science have made global news this year. Reflecting on the scientific norm of organised scepticism, Panagiotis Kavouras outlines how building trust in science requires commitments to social and technical means of ensuring transparency and reproducibility across scientific processes.

What is #reflexivity in #research?
Reflexivity is the practice of researchers reflecting on their own biases, assumptions, and impact on the research process. It's like having a mirror on our methods, keeping us honest and objective. From acknowledging our biases to navigating ethical considerations, reflexivity ensures our research is transparent and trustworthy.

“[A] new analysis by Bloomberg has found the [Google Maps] platform routinely misleads people searching for abortion providers and clinics. When users search the words “abortion clinic” in Google Maps, nearly a quarter of the top 10 search results, on average and across all 50 states including Washington D.C., belong to crisis pregnancy centers. Crisis pregnancy centers, or CPCs, are a type of non-medical organizations with a mission to encourage women to go through with their unwanted pregnancies…”
