Best Practices for Academic Writing
When drafting your thesis or research paper review:
1. Type a specific research question, such as "What are the cognitive effects of intermittent fasting on undergraduate memory retention?"
2. Filter results by publication date and peer-review status.
3. Export the extraction matrix to CSV or BibTeX for effortless insertion into Zotero or Mendeley.
