Good morning…or almost afternoon! I just finished combing through over 700 articles and filtering them out based on title then abstract to narrow it down to only the articles that contain the data I need for my systematic review. Scientific research stuff is so new to me, but it’s kind of cool digging through everything and having the satisfaction of knowing all there is to know about your specific research topic/question. Plus, getting published is pretty neat haha. Next it’s time to go through alllll the references of my chosen articles to see if there are any more good articles to add to my pile. Got to my office at 7:00am today and have been going at it for almost 5 hours straight. Time for a break. I’m at the research headquarters today, which is in a different area than the hospital zone. Not as many options here so Starbucks latte it is. There’s so many cool cafes near the hospital; it’s in sweet area. Yesterday I tried Elysian Coffee which was too hip to have wifi (great for reading articles and staying focused haha). The latte was so good I got another one to-go for my long seminar yesterday. Tasty cookie, too! Have a good Friday babeskillets, Tita xx
