As artificial intelligence (AI) rapidly transforms the research landscape, research administrators are uniquely positioned to guide institutions through both the opportunities and challenges of this technological shift. This symposium brings together experts in AI, research policy, data management, and compliance to explore how AI tools can enhance efficiency, decision-making, and innovation across the research enterprise. Participants will gain a deeper understanding of how AI technologies are reshaping research administration and will leave with practical insights and strategies for responsible and effective adoption within their organizations.
