Typically, it takes a student eight years to complete their college education in pursuit of a Pharm.D., which allows them to become a qualified pharmacist. During this time, students will often use a laboratory notebook to record research and experiment details. It’s the first place you register all of your work, including hypotheses, experimental setup, […]
When learning a new skill, sitting in a lecture hall, or working in a lab, taking good notes is one of the most valuable things you can do. Taking good notes ensures that you will have a great resource to look back on. Taking notes also allows you to retain information much better. However, if […]
Roughly 411 million metric tons of cardboard and paper were manufactured around the world in 2016. A significant slice of this tonnage went into creating notebooks for various users, including the scientific community. Running your experiments and research is, for many people, infinitely more exciting than taking the time to update scientific notebooks. However, it’s […]
Research is the backbone of all scientific work. That research involves gathering lots of data. All the data collected during research needs to be stored somewhere. The best way to store that data is by recording it in a laboratory notebook. Such notebooks are especially popular in the U.S., China, and Japan where laboratories are […]
