As part of the ALIES project, we brought together 30 brilliant researchers from across the globe for a three-day Scoping Workshop in Hanover, Germany. Our focus: how AI is reshaping science, science communication, and education. Today, AI is no longer just a tool. It is becoming a collaborator, shaping how knowledge is produced and shared, from generating hypotheses and designing experiments to analyzing data and even writing manuscripts. This shift raises big questions about the future of science and society. At the Xplanatorium Herrenhausen, with the generous support of the Volkswagen Foundation, we tackled these questions in an inspiring setting, drawing on expertise from science communication, education, AI research, and beyond

Shakked Dabran-Zivan’s research was awarded first place in the DRI – Developing Comprehensive Response to Online Misinformation and Disinformation in Israel – call for proposals, initiated by the Israel Internet Association (ISOC-IL) with support from the European Union. The expert committee praised the research for its innovation, contribution to understanding disinformation, and potential impact on policy and practice.

Congratulations to our new Master of Science – Roni!
