Abstract
Artificial intelligence is increasingly shaping the way research information is surfaced, explored, and understood. Within Current Research Information Systems (CRIS), AI-driven approaches are opening new avenues for enhancing the discoverability and accessibility of research outputs.
In this session we will briefly overview the new AI-powered functionality introduced within Symplectic Elements and how it can be used to improve engagement with research within public profiles, making it easier for both specialists and non-specialists to assess the relevance of scholarly work at a glance. The move introduces AI-generated publication summaries, which offer concise, plain-language explanations of research outputs alongside key highlights and keywords. This opt-in functionality allows institutions to enhance the accessibility of their researchers’ work while ensuring that individual scholars retain control over how AI-generated content is displayed on their profiles. By automatically generating digestible research summaries, this feature helps users - including potential collaborators, journalists, and members of the public - quickly grasp the significance of scholarly work without requiring in-depth subject expertise.
