Anthropic Report Explores AI's Role in Accelerating Scientific Research

A report published by Anthropic on November 5, 2026, provides an in-depth analysis of how scientists are leveraging the Claude AI platform to enhance research workflows. The study, based on 207,049 research sessions conducted between August 2 and September 30, 2026, examines the adoption of Claude, Claude Code, and the recently introduced Claude Science across various scientific fields and tasks. The findings highlight the potential of AI to accelerate scientific discovery, particularly in computationally intensive disciplines. The report reveals that AI adoption is more prevalent in formal sciences such as computer science, mathematics, and statistics, relative to the number of researchers in these fields. In contrast, health sciences and lab-based physical sciences exhibit lower levels of AI use.
