Webinar: Meet Your New Research Assistant, CAS Newton℠ in CAS SciFinder®

The future of scientific research has arrived and it is now available to Nazarbayev University researchers. Starting from April 8, 2026, NU users have access to CAS Newton℠, a powerful new agentic AI integrated directly into CAS SciFinder.

What is CAS Newton?
CAS Newton is not just another AI tool. It is a science-smart AI assistant built specifically for researchers and trained on one of the world’s most comprehensive collections of curated scientific data.

Unlike general AI tools, CAS Newton operates within a secure, closed environment. This means your research data remains private, your queries are not used for AI training, and the answers are grounded in trusted scientific information.

What makes it different?
CAS Newton goes beyond traditional search.
Instead of simply retrieving results, it:
  • reasons through complex scientific questions
  • connects multiple concepts and datasets
  • provides actionable insights through a conversational interface

This allows you to explore multi-step research problems faster, with deeper understanding and greater confidence in the results.

Why it matters for NU researchers
With CAS Newton, you can:
  • accelerate literature discovery
  • navigate complex research questions more efficiently
  • gain deeper insights from trusted scientific data
  • enhance your overall research workflow

In practice, it functions as a virtual research assistant that helps you move from question to insight faster.
