Soon you will be using it to memorize things outside of medicine/school! A good quality to have for medical school and perhaps as an academic, but as with all addictions, it may become an obsession that can possibly overtake your life. The next TV show you watch, the magazine that you read, how can you resist not entering those delicious morsels of facts into Anki? I guess this is when they say, caveat emptor?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8275124532000540547.post-35084548167162838842012-02-03T05:26:22.835-08:002012-02-03T05:26:22.835-08:00Thanks guys. Yeah, I've been using Papers for ...Thanks guys. Yeah, I've been using Papers for years. I think it's an amazing tool. I'm going to upgrade to Papers 2.0 in the near term. I've also tried Mendeley and I like the cross platform capability. I have a PC as well as a mac. I wish Papers worked with windows.<br /><br />I need to learn more about citation managing software. Endnote is OK. I hear Papers 2.0 has its own bibliography and citation manager. Is that true? <br /><br />I'm also thinking about how I want to write my dissertation. I think piecemeal, over time is the best way. I hate leaving a huge pile of work for the end. I've looked at a program called Scrivener that is really popular with professional authors. I think it could be used well to write an academic work like a dissertation. <br /><br />Likewise, I'm pretty certain that I'm going to make all of my lab notes electronic. Evernote is a good program for that I think. When I get data, it'll go right into my computer, along with any associated images or figures. In this way, all my data will be searchable and organized and when it comes time to write a paper, there won't be any scurrying to backtrack or rendering data from a physical lab notebook to the computer.<br /><br />With respect to reading papers, I'm also going to try something new. It's no secret that I've used Anki (spaced repetition flashcards) for medical school and I'm a huge fan. I'm going to give it a shot with journal articles too. Why shouldn't I care about remembering what I read in articles as much as what I'm learning in med school? Every paper has at least one take away point that you should log into your memory so that you can integrate that info and do something with it. So that's my plan. When I read a paper, I want to distill at least one main point and make an Anki card for it. <br /><br />Think about all the scientific papers you've read in your time as a grad student. Wouldn't it be great if you had that knowledge in your head, ready to be used to make new connections or synthesize new ideas? Does this sound wacky?DrWillbehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16201977008275547572noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8275124532000540547.post-5330080831785331832012-02-02T19:30:58.083-08:002012-02-02T19:30:58.083-08:00To add to what anonymous said, I've been using...To add to what anonymous said, I've been using Mendeley. It's a similar program, but cross platform and (unlike papers) is platform independent and free. Also integrates web2.0 features (social and research networks based on common scientific interests). Also great as a citation manager.<br /><br />www.mendeley.comzdkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08884080624642866510noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8275124532000540547.post-67519730890725119472012-02-02T18:22:22.955-08:002012-02-02T18:22:22.955-08:00I am not yet into the research portion of my MD/Ph...I am not yet into the research portion of my MD/PhD program yet, but in my graduate classes and lab rotation, one tool I have found useful is the program Papers2. It is essentially an iTunes for PDF files, and is designed to work for academic research, so it allows mark up of the papers (highlighting, adding notes, etc). I am a big fan of it now, and am fairly confident/hopeful it will help me keep my papers organized as graduate school progresses. I would recommend trying the trial version at the very least.

I'm sure you're having much success yourself in grad school.DrWillbehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16201977008275547572noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8275124532000540547.post-1319759268138151712012-02-01T19:26:29.677-08:002012-02-01T19:26:29.677-08:00I'm working on a medium-risk project.

The problem with high risk projects is that there's a risk of getting scooped. Getting a good mentor (rather than worrying about working in a specific field on a specific problem) is definitely key.<br /><br />Since I know you're into the business/biotech/pharma side of things, make sure you get an adviser who's pro-industry and, preferably, has connections/networks to industry and the start up/tech world. Chances are, you'll need to use those connections to leverage your career after you [eventually] graduate!<br /><br />Workflow: my philosophy is to think and plan a bunch of projects so if something doesn't pan out (for technical, financial or other reasons) you can easily switch gears without too much mental anguish.<br /><br />I wouldn't say there are any specific books that would have helped me. Like life, success seems to come from experience. <br /><br />Good luck starting your phd side of things. Hope I've helped a bit!zdkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08884080624642866510noreply@blogger.com
