A great blog written by @AjanthaAbey
A PhD is probably the longest project you will ever run. Dr Ajantha Abey on the record keeping systems that make year four survivable, and why setting them up in year one is worth the effort.

ALT Cover graphic for a Dementia Researcher blog. A faded photograph of a laboratory bench with glassware, a beaker and a microscope sits behind bold navy text reading "Research Habits I Wish I'd Started Earlier in My PhD", with "I Wish I'd Started Earlier" in a handwritten style script underlined in yellow. Beneath it, smaller text reads "Practical systems and productivity tips that will save you time and stress throughout your PhD". A yellow band across the bottom carries the Dementia Researcher logo, the words "Guest Blog", and the name Dr Ajantha Abey, Postdoctoral Researcher, University of Oxford, alongside a photograph of Ajantha, who has long dark hair and is smiling at the camera.

Congratulations to Naia Marcelino for concluding a very successful vist with the team at @OxfordDPAG
Naia became an expert in striatal pathways and contributed to develop new technologies to create a mini-striatum with hiPSCs. Very well done! @WadeMartinsLab @SPC_Oxford
