Workshop Workbooks

Live

These workbooks were developed for workshops conducted at various institutions and conferences. Most resources are from the "Augmented Academia: AI in Life Sciences Teaching & Research" workshop series (2025 workshop) . The inclusive teaching workbook was created for the Society of Experimental Biologists GenAI Symposium.

🔬 Augmented Academia: AI in Life Sciences (2025)

About Augmented Academia

The Project

Augmented Academia is a collection of open, interactive workshop series created by Dr Alisha Aman, as part of her role in the Generative AI in Education Network (GAINEd). These workshops are designed to support staff and students in using Generative AI effectively, ethically, and inclusively.

Dr Aman is a Lecturer and Program Director of MSc MedTech Innovation, and focuses on Education Technology development and the use of GenAI in higher education. She has developed and delivered workshops on GenAI in academia nationally for various institutions and conferences, including universities, the Royal Society of Biology, and the Society for Experimental Biology.
