Dear Martin

Thanks so much for your prompt response. I did ofc do an extensive google research yet found that as can be seen in your link most entries focus on either writing papers or general bits an pieces .What i am looking for is a holistic approach regarding organizing all aspects of academic life and to hear workflows of other colleagues using org for that

thanks again , looking forward to hearing from other colleagues in the orgmode community

best
