SCHOLARLY PUBLISHING INDUSTRY WEEKLY NEWS ALERT

November 25, 2025 Editorial Bending the Arc of Discovery: AI's Real Impact on Scientific Research   AI is rapidly reshaping the landscape of scientific discovery, not by replacing human ingenuity but by expanding its capacity. As research timelines grow longer and workflows more complex, advanced AI models offer new ways to accelerate hypothesis generation, streamline analysis, and support parallel exploration across disciplines. While the promise of acceleration is significant, it must be matched with strong governance, rigorous oversight, and responsible adoption to avoid errors or bias. The future of discovery lies in human–machine collaboration that couples speed with integrity. With thoughtful integration, AI can shorten the path from idea to impact and redefine what is possible in modern research ecosystems.

SCHOLARLY PUBLISHING INDUSTRY WEEKLY NEWS ALERT

November 18, 2025 Editorial Reclaiming Discovery: How Thoughtful AI Can Give Researchers Back Their Time   Elsevier's report, "Researcher of the Future - a Confidence in Research," highlights a widening gap between the promise of AI and the support researchers receive to use it responsibly. While enthusiasm for AI continues to grow, only 32% of researchers believe their institutions provide strong AI governance, and just 27% feel adequately trained. At the same time, less than half report having enough time to conduct meaningful research. Thoughtful, well-supported AI adoption can help address these challenges by easing routine burdens and creating space for more in-depth inquiry. With clear training, ethical guidance, and institutional alignment, AI has the potential to enhance—not hinder—the integrity and impact of scholarly work, enabling researchers to reclaim valuable time for discovery.
