Generative Artificial intelligence (AI) is changing the writing processes, the role of audiences and reviewers, and the ways in which scholars construct their writerly identities. This creates a need for research that investigates writing for publication as it is currently practised, and how it is being reshaped by technological developments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This PhD project will focus on investigating issues such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>How multimodal and AI-mediated practices shape knowledge construction<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>How evolving practices affect scholarly identity, research integrity, and public trust in science<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The ethical challenges arising from the use of AI for writing, reviewing, or disseminating science<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>How training in writing for publication can foster ethical writers\u2014not just ethical writing\u2014equipping researchers with reflexivity and responsibility in their practices<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We welcome original and creative proposals that address parts of this broad arena. Possible approaches include textual\/discourse analysis, interviews, reception studies, ethnography of scientific practice, or mixed-methods designs.
