SUMMARY:Large Language Models and Literature Reviews in the Health Sciences: Potential and Pitfalls (Online)
DESCRIPTION:The Advanced Research Skills for Health Science Researchers webinar series is designed to help researchers, clinicians and information professionals improve their ability to find and share information. Covering key aspects of data sharing, search strategies, and AI in literature searching, these sessions provide strategies for enhancing research workflows and clinical decision-making.    All workshops will be offered via Zoom and will be recorded and made available to all who registered. If attending online, please register in advance for each workshop. PLEASE NOTE: you must complete a separate registration for each online workshop you wish to attend.    This webinar examines how AI tools like ChatGPT currently handle literature searches, and in turn literature reviews, and why they frequently generate fabricated citations and/or miss key studies. We'll present an alternative: conducting your own systematic searches in specialized databases, then using AI tools to synthesize and draft from your verified citation library. The session covers the process of gathering citations, generating literature review drafts, requesting supporting evidence from the tools, and iteratively refining your work while maintaining scientific rigor. You'll learn practical techniques for using AI as a research assistant while preserving your role as the critical evaluator of evidence and accuracy.
