Artificial intelligence is becoming an increasingly visible part of research, from developing project ideas and preparing proposals to the way research organisations manage and support their work. This year\u2019s annual conference of the V4 R&I Liaison Offices in Brussels will look at where AI is already changing research practice, what questions these changes raise, and how they are being experienced. On 20 October 2026<\/strong>, the Brussels-based research and innovation liaison offices of the V4 countries will hold the next edition of their annual conference. This year\u2019s event, entitled \u201cExploring the Role of AI in Research\u201d<\/strong>, will bring together perspectives from the Visegrad region and place them within the broader European discussion on the use of artificial intelligence in research.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI is already influencing how researchers develop, refine and present project ideas, while research organisations are increasingly exploring its use in administrative and support processes. At the same time, new questions are emerging around responsible use, the skills needed to work effectively with AI, its possible role in proposal evaluation, and the growing pressure on researchers and support structures as application volumes continue to rise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The conference will address, among other issues, how AI may shape proposal preparation and evaluation, where the boundaries lie between legitimate support and undue influence, and what kinds of institutional support are needed as researchers adapt to changes in efficiency, integrity and day-to-day work. The aim is not to provide ready-made answers, but to compare practical experiences from the V4 countries and contribute them to the wider European debate on the role of AI in research.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The event is jointly organised by the Czech Liaison Office for Education and Research (CZELO), the National Research, Development and Innovation Office of Hungary (NRDIO), the Polish Science Contact Agency of the Polish Academy of Sciences (PolSCA), and the Slovak Liaison Office for Research and Development (SLORD).<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The V4 liaison offices organise this conference every year, each time focusing on a topic of current relevance to European research and innovation policy. Last year\u2019s edition explored how research and innovation can contribute to a fair green transition. You can read the summary of the 2025 V4 conference here<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The detailed programme and registration link will be published in early September.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
