Discover how researchers are using generative AI to improve their everyday research workflows. This interactive showcase brings together PhD students and researchers to share practical tools, agents, and workflows that support tasks such as literature reviews, writing, coding, data collection, experiment design, and teaching. Rather than presenting finished research, participants exchange concrete practices that others can adopt in their own work, creating opportunities for cross-disciplinary learning, collaboration, and inspiration.
Key Event Highlights
- Opening Keynote exploring how AI research can evolve into practical tools and successful ventures.
- Interactive showcase of GenAI-powered research workflows and tools from across UZH and beyond.
- Live demonstrations of practical approaches for literature reviews, academic writing, coding, workflow automation, experiment design, and teaching support.
- Opportunity to connect with researchers from different disciplines and discover workflows that can be adopted in your own research.
- Awards for the most innovative GenAI research workflows, judged by a panel of experts based on innovativeness, broad usefulness, and reproducibility.
- Prizes of CHF 300, CHF 200, and CHF 100 for AI tool subscriptions will be awarded to the top three submissions.
- Networking dinner and informal discussions following the showcase and awards ceremony.
