Here at Research Outreach, we aim to illuminate the wonders of science, one article at a time. Science is the language of discovery, a tool that enables us to understand the Universe and our place within it. Yet the beauty of science often remains hidden behind complex language and data sets. Our mission is to bridge this gap, transforming the most intricate of scientific concepts into accessible and engaging narratives. 

In a fascinating interview with Professor Stefan Brunnhuber, World Academy of Arts and Science, we learn about his work for the UN and WHO, the emerging role of artificial intelligence, and his ideas on financial engineering to help foster a sustainable future.

Proofig AI is an innovative and reflexive AI-powered proofing tool that aims to identify the improper usage of images in scientific publishing and elsewhere. We spoke to Proofig AI’s founder, Dr Dror Kolodkin-Gal, about the challenges scientific publishing faces with the publication of fraudulent manuscripts, and how AI can help encourage proper practice in scientific publishing. 

With a warm welcome to our first issue of 2024, we hope that these pages ignite your curiosity, spark new ideas, and leave you inspired by the fascinating world of research.
