Artificial Intelligence (AI) is revolutionizing academic research at a never-before-seen speed. From automating data analysis to automated generation of research papers, AI software is changing the academic work landscape.

When most people hear "blockchain," they think of Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies. However, blockchain technology is making waves far beyond finance—especially in academic research, data security, and intellectual property protection.
