This study explores the integration of generative AI tools in scientific writing among Israeli academic researchers, focusing on usage patterns and ethical considerations. Based on a mixed-method survey of 102 participants, the findings reveal that GenAI is commonly used for linguistic editing, literature reviews, research planning, and data analysis. While researchers value its efficiency, concerns persist regarding originality, plagiarism, and the need for transparent disclosure. Thematic analysis highlights the importance of critical evaluation and maintaining an academic voice. The study underscores the need for clearer guidelines and training to ensure ethical integration of GenAI in scholarly writing and research practices.
