Grant proposals drafted with AI help more likely to win NIH funding

But funding proposals to US agencies also tend to be more similar to previously funded projects if they are written or edited with the help of a chatbot.

The webinar series of our #NFDI Section #ELSA will continue on 4 March at 4 p.m. with a talk by Alexandra Bendixen (TU Chemnitz) about “Ethical aspects of human-participant research data collection: The open-source ‘#Ethiktool’ software”.

ℹ️ The tool, developed based on long-standing ethics committee work, allows researchers to generate an ethics application with all information and required documents.

"explore the range of morally defensible population policies" cool. Not concerning at all. Especially since the population growth comes from the fact that people who already live continues to do so (ie, not dying from preventable causes early in life) rather than birth rates. #ResearchEthics

Can’t believe #ITI is still a thing in 2026. This study spells it out: “ITI consistently inflated review scores and increased rates of acceptance recommendations from 0% to nearly 100%.” That’s not subtle bias - that’s system failure! #ResearchEthics #ResearchIntegrity #PeerReview #ResearchSky
