Whether developing a research project or implementing one, problem-solving is the researcher’s daily business. However, finding solutions to problems – irrespective of whether they are of conceptual or practical nature, whether they are big or small – can be time-consuming and feel frustrating, particularly once you encountered a mental block or seem to have exhausted the range of conceivable options.

Problem-solving, however, does not need to be agonizing. Quite the contrary, a small change in perspective or a little shift in thinking about a problem is often sufficient for an original solution to emerge. This workshop will introduce tactics for inducing more "Aha-Moments" in your work. Based on insights from the scientific study of problem-solving and creativity, you will learn tools facilitating greater originality and efficiency when needed.

We will also explore how recently introduced AI-powered chatbots such as ChatGTP can support your creative process.
