# Org-mode and Org-Roam for Scholars and Researchers
Noorah Alhasan
Org-mode improved so much over the years, and the use-cases in org-mode are
vast and highly technical. There is something for everyone in org-mode, and
it's important to sift through all of these features and figure out what's
best for a given situation or specific users. Therefore, I will be
targeting academics and scholars that are engaging with literature in the
early stages of a project or their academic careers.
Academics and scholars engage with complex ideas and unstructured research
workflows. I believe that org-mode can add more structure to the madness,
and I will use this talk to clarify a possible solution to reduce such
complexity. I propose a research workflow framework that utilizes
org-mode, its raw form, and its many associated packages. However, the main
package I will be mostly talking about is Org-Roam, and the way its
underlying principles will revolutionize the research workflow.
This presentation will help researchers organize and build their knowledge
database in a streamlined and effective way. The research workflow is
presented in three phases: planning, note-taking, and reference management.
I will talk briefly about the packages and special-use cases for each stage
and learned lessons along the way. Finally, the presentation concludes with
future considerations and possible org-mode features.
