Further, we touched on the subject of ethical use of AI tools in research, including the need of transparency and usage disclosure as well as maintaining the user’s data privacy and autonomy.

Listen to the podcast: access2perspectives.org/2025/07/a-co...

We were invited to join the podcast of Access 2 Perspectives. Together with their CEO Jo Havemann, we discussed how scienceOS started, became what it is today, and what external factors continue to shape the ongoing development of the AI research agent.

When you upload a PDF, it is stored securely, encrypted automatically, and accessible only to you. If you create a project and add PDFs to it, you can choose to share access to it with colleagues. They will be able to read and interact with the PDFs, but they will not be able to download them.

What happens when I upload a PDF?

Building AI systems that respect privacy and protect data is essential for maintaining ethical standards in research and beyond. At scienceOS we are committed to data protection. By design, we follow the principles of minimal data collection, need-to-know, and need-to-have to ensure data privacy.

“Without robust safeguards, personal information could be misused or exposed, eroding trust and causing harm," says Olya. In research, scientists routinely handle complex datasets that may include sensitive data. Thus, privacy risks are amplified, potentially undermining scientific integrity.

Are AI and data privacy compatible?

The use of large datasets, often containing sensitive personal information, presents privacy risks in AI development and application. Ensuring the confidentiality and security of this data is not just a technical requirement - it is an ethical responsibility.

With scienceOS, it takes just two steps to share your library with your colleagues:
1. Upload PDFs and/or DOIs to your library.
2. Go to “Library chat” and click “Share” to create an invite link for your colleagues.

By creating a shared library that always mirrors your personal collection, all your materials are instantly available to students you mentor, co‑authors you coordinate with, or peers you explore topics with.

When working on a paper or proposal with colleagues, having one shared library of trusted sources that everyone can access and discuss ensures clear communication and unified progress.

How to share your library with colleagues in scienceOS in two simple steps.

Scan the QR code to read a detailed tutorial about how to disclose your use of scienceOS and other AI tools, or go to www.scienceOS.ai/articles to browse all our tutorials for your AI research workflows.

For this purpose, we developed a flexible template that contains placeholders and a range of options to quickly disclose your use of scienceOS or another AI tool.

Most publishers provide guidelines on how to declare AI usage; yet, due to the rapid advancement of AI technology, rules may change and it is important to review guidelines before submitting a manuscript.

As AI tools appear to become a standard support tool for the research process, stigma around AI usage should be addressed by transparency about this topic.

How to disclose your use of scienceOS.

This new update is dedicated to Barbara McClintock, whose discovery of “jumping genes” revealed the genome’s dynamic, context-dependent nature. McClintock made significant contributions to genome regulation and was later awarded a Nobel prize.

With the McClintock Update, we aim to provide you a more intuitive experience in scienceOS.

Additionally, to help you trust and assess every reference, each source you view - in chats, your library, shared projects - now displays its SCImago Journal Rank for a quick quality check, if available.
