Research Tool - Research is already hard. So why not simplify it?

Reserve our energy on something more important. Put it on ideation, critical thinking and problem solving. A lot of tools can help a whole process of research activity. It helps us to manage the references, finds research gap, even illustrate the graphical abstract.

Below are some tools and AI agent may useful for our research

Reference Manager

Research need read a lot, but on some points we will read a lot of references.
Reference manager help to keep all our reference
Usually people using Mendeley, Zotero, Refworks or EndNote

Beyond Generative AI/LLM

ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Claude, or any other generative AI have introduced pros and cons toward researcher communities. Quoting a line from Jensen Huang (CEO of NVidia) "You're not going to lose your job to an AI, but you're going to lose your job to someone who uses AI". It also resemble for scientist, especially for PhD student an entry step of scientific career.

Everyone agree we need to put some ethics and wise way to use AI, but how read more

Literature Study

A robust literature study forms the foundation of any PhD research. AI tools speed up the process. However, the researcher's human insight remains irreplaceable. This page outlines why manual study matters, which tools to use, and how to work effectively.

Illustration and Creativity

Personally, I put big respect for creative workers that put effort and unique touch on every works. But as a student, I have no enough budget to hire professional illustrator to create graphical abstract or even cover illustration. As a win win solution, I use AI to give inspiration. This article will explain on how to make creative works for graphical abstract, presentation even dashboard interface design

Don't be afraid with grammar and structure

Language barriers often hinder non-native English speakers in academia. Brilliant research sometimes faces rejection due to poor phrasing. You should not let grammar stop your scientific contribution. Modern AI tools act as your 24/7 writing coaches. They ensure your ideas remain clear and professional.

Machine Learning and Data Processing

Machine learning (ML) and data processing are now essential for modern research. They allow scientists to manage vast datasets. They also help identify complex patterns. Researchers no longer need deep coding skills to use these tools. Visual platforms and multimodal models have democratized access to high-level analysis read more
