This week, our CRC HSB team and collaborators wrapped up an incredible 3-day workshop: "Let's Write Research Papers with AI." From 8-10 Sep 2025, we took over the Raia Hotel in Alor Setar for an immersive journey into how Artificial Intelligence can supercharge our work.

Our expert speakers guided us through the entire research lifecycle:

Day 1: Demystifying complex quantitative data analysis and interpretation with the brilliant Dr. Wan Nurul Izza from UPSI.

Day 2: Exploring the broader landscape of AI in research and learning how to build powerful proposals with Dr. Hayrol Azril from UPM.

Day 3: Mastering the art of writing review-type papers with the insightful Assoc. Prof. Dr. Hafizul from UPSI.

Through dynamic, hands-on sessions, it became crystal clear how AI can significantly boost our efficiency and research productivity.

Interesting quote from one of our speakers, who perfectly captured the spirit of this new era:

"AI ialah jalan pantas, bukan jalan pintas."
(AI is a fast track, not a shortcut.)

We are energized and ready to ethically harness these tools to accelerate our research outcomes. A huge thank you to our speakers, organising committee and all the engaged participants for making this event a massive success!

A huge thank you to our experts, Mr. Shahrul Aiman (quantitative) and Dr. Siti Maisarah (qualitative), for sharing their invaluable knowledge and guiding our participants on how to choose the right methodology for their research projects.

The highlight of the workshop was the one-on-one sessions where our CRC staff provided personalized guidance and feedback. This ensures our participants are on the right path from the very beginning of their research journey.

Congratulations to all who attended! We look forward to seeing the amazing research projects that will emerge from this group.
