Abstract

In this UDM AI workshops series, four workshops are scheduled ahead of the summer break, each focusing on a distinct aspect of applied AI. 

Are you looking for new, engaging ways to share your research with a broader audience? This hands-on session is for you. We will start with a simple introduction to using AI tools like NotebookLM to convert your scientific paper into a short, AI-generated podcast (2–5 minutes, See the example provided here). Then, we will explore creative formats such as social media-ready content to make your research more accessible and impactful. You will also have the chance to create your own real audio summary (max 2 minutes, summarizing your work and key results) and learn how to share it effectively on platforms like LinkedIn or BlueSky — helping you connect with stakeholders, engage with research communities, and increase the visibility of your work. Join us and see how easy it is to turn your research into a powerful story.

Biography

The UDM Department is excited to announce the launch of a series of practical, hands-on AI workshops starting in May 2025, open to all LISER staff.

• No prior experience with AI required;
• No software installation required;
• Just bring your curiosity and your laptop!

These interactive sessions are designed to provide a collaborative and accessible introduction to AI tools and techniques, using real-world research scenarios to demonstrate their value and impact.

This initiative is part of a broader effort to enhance AI literacy across LISER and empower staff with practical, research-relevant skills.

Additional information:

• Seats are limited, so we strongly encourage early registration to secure your spot.
• The sessions will be recorded;
• Training materials will be stored in a shared folder accessible to all LISER staff;
• Materials will include step-by-step guides, datasets, and tools for further practice;
• Who can benefit most: staff who are not familiar with AI tools for research or daily work.

Join us in exploring how AI can enhance your work and open new possibilities for research and communication. We look forward to seeing you there!
