Mark Hahnel and Simon Porter introduce Digital Science's new report as part of our ongoing investigation into Research Transformation: Change in the era of AI, open and impact.

Transformation via and within research is a constant in our lives. But with AI, we now stand at a point where research (and many other aspects of our working life) will be transformed in a monumental way. As such, we are taking this moment to reflect on the activity of Research Transformation itself, and celebrating the art of change. Our campaign will show how research data can be transformed into actionable insights, how the changing role of research is affecting both those in academia and industry, and exploring innovative ways to make research more open, inclusive and collaborative, for all – especially for those beyond the walls of academia.
