In scientific or university presentations, there is usually little opportunity to insert images. But I don’t want to use only text.

That’s why I display scientific articles or online articles using mockups.

Using beautiful custom fonts in your PowerPoint presentation, but everything breaks and looks off when you open it on another computer?

There’s a solution – make sure to enable font embedding in your PowerPoint file. This way, everything will display correctly on any computer.

Discovered that by registering with a student email, you can access Figma's Professional Plan at no cost.

The verification is straightforward (definitely easier than GitHub Education😁), granting you full access without any charge.

I love using glow effects in presentations — they instantly turn a basic opening slide into a “screen saver” that grabs attention.

Check out the perfect Figma plugin for this — Glow.

I absolutely love the neon gradient from Apple!

To save time and avoid recreating it manually every time, I decided to create a Figma plugin for it.

P.S. I have zero programming experience, but thanks to AI, I was able to make it happen. It’s such a time-saver!

Zotero reigns supreme as the ultimate reference manager — can't live a day without it.

However, Zotero Team, it’s time to add a built-in AI assistant that can work with my entire database and context 😏

The killer feature of any AI is working with your context. This takes the level of understanding with AI to a new level.

That's why I'm a huge fan of Notion AI — being able to ask questions based on a database of notes from all the books I’ve read is priceless.

Transforming Research Outputs into Actionable Insights

Great research deserves great presentation. When working in teams, I always advocate for creating research outputs that are clear, engaging, and easy to understand.

Think of it as a marketing asset ↓

Sometimes, the ultimate productivity tool is a simple pen and paper, even if it is not aesthetic.

Crafting quick tables lets me effortlessly handle big projects by breaking them into neat, manageable pieces.

And there's nothing quite as gratifying as ticking off that box.
