Although research productivity has historically dropped by 50% every 13 years as scientists struggle to manually connect massive volumes of data, AI is ready to reverse this trend. By taking over time-consuming analysis, general AI agents act as an essential partner, freeing scholars to focus on high-impact problems and potentially unlocking half a trillion dollars in value across science and engineering. Join this roundtable to explore how leading universities are combining high-performance computing, advanced analytics, and generative AI to accelerate time-to-discovery and boost grant competitiveness. Together, we will define a new research engine for the agentic era, empowering your institution to turn complex data into tomorrow's scientific breakthroughs.
