One year left to the dissertation (we hope) and now turning from mostly software development into more of data analysis and needing to read up quite a pile of books and papers on my actual topic, pharmaceutical bioinformatics. With this background, I’m feel forced to ponder ways to improving my note taking workflow. I’m already quite happy with the way of taking notes I’ve settled on, using a lot of drawings and often iterating over the same notes multiple times to ask questions, fill in details, and figure out connections.
