- reading papers, blogs, articles, searching google scholar, and chatting with perplexity about them to help find other papers
- writing research proposals based on my reading and previous research
- analysing data lately this means asking Claude code to generate a notebook for playing around with the data
- writing codes to explore some data or make some model of data, this also has a lot of Claude code interaction these days
- meetings, slack, email
- doing paper and proposal reviews which includes any or all of the above tasks plus writing my opinion in whatever format is expected
- travelling somewhere to meet with colleagues at a conference or their workplace to do some collaboration that includes any or all of the above plus also giving talks
- organising events that bring people together to do any to all of the above together
