We concentrate on three areas: The efficient organization of tasks and notes, the productive communication with supervisors and the research community, and the structured reading and writing of academic papers. In each area, we will reflect on effective mindsets, tools, and workflows.  The goal is for each participant to take away at least three specific ideas on how to substantially improve their own approach.
