<![CDATA[Artificial Intelligence (AI) has transformed the research landscape by enabling large-scale data analysis, process automation, pattern recognition, and predictive modeling across diverse academic disciplines. However, the increasing integration of AI into research introduces significant ethical challenges, including algorithmic bias, lack of transparency, data privacy, accountability, intellectual property, and potential misuse of automated systems. This paper examines the ethical dimensions of AI-driven research by reviewing existing ethical frameworks, empirical studies, and practical case examples concerning the responsible use of AI in academic research. The study identifies key principles required to promote responsible AI adoption, including fairness, transparency, explainability, privacy protection, human oversight, accountability, and inclusivity. Based on these findings, the paper proposes a structured ethical governance model that can guide researchers and institutions in assessing, implementing, and monitoring AI technologies throughout the research process. The proposed model emphasizes human-centered decision-making and continuous ethical evaluation to ensure that technological innovation contributes to scientific advancement without compromising human rights, equity, research integrity, or public trust.]]>
