AI is changing how science is done. So how is science publishing responding to this transformation? Join us for a thought-provoking panel discussion at the Frankfurt Book Fair exploring the transformative impact of AI on scientific practice, the researcher workflow, and the role of libraries.

Our expert panel will examine the ways in which human and machine intelligence create a new, hybrid way of working, with the integration of AI into existing systems and examine the implications for research practice, curricula and infrastructure.

Moderator: Dr. Rafael Ball, Director University Library, ETH Zurich

  • Anita de Waard, Vice President Research Collaborations, Elsevier
  • PD Dr. Dr. Frédéric Döhl, Strategy, German National Library
