only in university settings but also at research institutes, government departments, and working in private industry. We were excited to meet Dr. Abinaya Sekar, a Senior Research Associate at India’s <a href="https://cprindia.org/">Centre for Policy Research</a> in New Delhi, visiting faculty at School of Planning and Architecture Delhi, and a Mendeley Advisor since 2021. </p> <p>Abinaya’s research focuses on policy related to air quality and human health. She holds a Ph.D. in Environmental Engineering Technology from <a href="https://www.nitc.ac.in/">National Institute of Technology Calicut</a>, a Post Graduate Diploma in Environmental Law from the <a href="https://www.nls.ac.in/">National Law School of India University</a>, Bangalore, a Masters in Environmental Engineering and Management and an undergraduate degree in Civil Engineering from <a href="https://www.tce.edu/">Thiagarajar College of Engineering</a>.</p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">How did you become interested in your field?</h2> <p>During my undergraduate study, my professor, Dr. Chandran, raised a question that stuck with me forever: “How to control the water hyacinth invasion in water bodies in Madurai.” It was then that I realized I wanted to work for the environment and especially pollution. The paradox that the level of water is increasing, but we do not have water that we can consume, is hard-hitting. For both my undergraduate and master’s thesis, I studied the invasive and beneficial characteristics of water hyacinth. Later, for my Ph.D., I went on to study the challenging discourse of air pollution and gained expertise in exposure assessment, human health risk assessment, and air pollution science.</p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">What attracted you to working at the Centre for Policy Research?</h2> <p>Since my Ph.D. I was interested in working with Delhi’s air quality crisis. I preferred working with the organization because CPR has been a consistent voice in the public discourse regarding the air pollution situation in Delhi. Working with CPR’s scholars, who are from the world’s finest universities, is a truly rewarding experience.</p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Where do you work the best? What kind of environment suits you?</h2> <p>I function best when it is peaceful. I cannot work around chaos. The Environment Engineering Laboratory at NIT Calicut is one such place. During my Ph.D. days, I would spend most of my time in the lab, carrying out my research. Often, days turned into nights and I often lost track of time while working. It was one place where I was disconnected from the other world and it was me, the instruments and my research. That is the kind of environment I thrive in.</p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">How long have you been using Mendeley? </h2> <p>I was first introduced to Mendeley by professor Dr. Arun Kumar from NIT Calicut in 2017. I’ve been using it since then.</p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">What were you using prior to Mendeley?</h2> <p>Before getting introduced to Mendeley, I was using the very difficult and tedious referencing method in Microsoft Word. After getting familiar with Mendeley, there was no looking back. Not only did it make referencing easier, but it also saved so much time. It was actually a life-changing decision.</p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Why did you decide to become an Advisor?</h2> <p>For the simple reason that more people should be familiar with such an easy to use and time saving referencing tool.</p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Is there a researcher you admire (dead or alive) that you would like to work with or meet?</h2> <p>Dr. George K. Varghese, my PhD supervisor, is someone I like and look up to. In India, Prof. Varghese is a pioneer in the field of Environmental Forensics. The questions he highlighted throughout our research discussions influenced the way I thought and approached my research questions. In addition to research skills, I’ve learned how to respond to people despite a hectic schedule, how to be approachable, and how to avoid procrastinating on work. I also deeply admire the work of<a href="https://www.cseindia.org/page/sunita-narain"> Ms. Sunita Narin</a>, Director General of the Centre for Science and Environment, New Delhi. I would like to meet her.</p> <div class="wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-1 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex"> <div class="wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow" style="flex-basis:33%"><div class="wp-block-image"> <figure class="aligncenter size-large is-resized"><img data-attachment-id="50362" data-permalink="https://blog.mendeley.com/2023/03/21/meet-dr-abinaya-sekar-our-newest-advisor-of-the-month/at_logo_podcast_2000/" data-orig-file="https://blog.mendeley.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/at_logo_podcast_2000.png" data-orig-size="2000,2000" data-comments-opened="0" data-image-meta="{"aperture":"0","credit":"","camera":"","caption":"","created_timestamp":"0","copyright":"","focal_length":"0","iso":"0","shutter_speed":"0","title":"","orientation":"0"}" data-image-title="at_logo_podcast_2000" data-image-description="" data-image-caption="" data-medium-file="https://blog.mendeley.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/at_logo_podcast_2000.png?w=300" data-large-file="https://blog.mendeley.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/at_logo_podcast_2000.png?w=809" src="https://blog.mendeley.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/at_logo_podcast_2000.png?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-50362" width="159" height="159" srcset="https://blog.mendeley.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/at_logo_podcast_2000.png?w=159 159w, https://blog.mendeley.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/at_logo_podcast_2000.png?w=318 318w, https://blog.mendeley.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/at_logo_podcast_2000.png?w=200 200w, https://blog.mendeley.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/at_logo_podcast_2000.png?w=300 300w" sizes="(max-width: 159px) 100vw, 159px" /></figure></div></div> <div class="wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow" style="flex-basis:67%"> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">What are you reading or listening to at the moment ?</h2> <p>This week I listened to the episode “<a href="https://atmospherictales.com/2021/04/24/breathing-the-air-in-lebanon-e-cigarettes-water-pipes-and-beyond/">Breathing the air in Lebanon: E-cigarettes, water pipes, and beyond</a>” featuring Prof. Najat Saliba, professor at the American University of Beirut (Lebanon), hosted by Atmospheric Tales, a podcast that focuses on stories from around the world related to air pollution and climate change.</p> </div> </div> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">What’s the most interesting thing you’ve learned this week?</h2> <p>The fact that globally, 40% of the secondary organic aerosols are formed from ammonia. In addition to the health effects associated with ammonia, its secondary particle formation potential makes it an important pollutant to regularly monitor. It may be a well-established fact; however, I came across it only this week.</p> <p>I also picked up some skills in making chicken biryani as well. This week I made it for my husband’s birthday party, and it was a huge hit.</p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">What is the best part about working in research?</h2> <p>The best part of research is searching. Every time I dig for something I end up finding some other newer related thing and the tabs in my browsers keep increasing. </p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">And the most challenging part about working in research?</h2> <p>The challenging part about research is also attributed to the researching part of it. The fact that to be good at it, one has to go into such depths, can often be mentally draining. I am often tired by the end of the day. Also, there are many repetitive corrections, which require a lot of consistency and commitment.</p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">What advice would you give to young researchers?<strong> </strong></h2> <p>My advice for young researchers is to read, re-read and read again. With that, write and jot down your ideas. Writing is an acquired skill which one acquires from writing a lot.</p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">What is the most important thing that people should know about Mendeley?</h2> <p>Taking notes within the app is the most useful feature for me. It makes Mendeley a useful platform for literature review in addition to referencing.</p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">You can read more about Abinaya and her work on these sites:</h2> <p>LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/abinaya-sekar-phd-82097b70/">https://www.linkedin.com/in/abinaya-sekar-phd-82097b70</a><br>Centre for Policy Research Staff pages: <a href="https://cprindia.org/people/abinaya-sekar/">https://cprindia.org/people/abinaya-sekar/</a></p> <hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity" /> <div class="wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-2 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex"> <div class="wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow" style="flex-basis:20%"><div class="wp-block-image"> <figure class="alignright size-large is-resized"><img data-attachment-id="49655" data-permalink="https://blog.mendeley.com/2019/09/10/do-you-have-enough-chairs/mendeley-advisor-community-logo_color/" data-orig-file="https://blog.mendeley.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/mendeley-advisor-community-logo_color.png" data-orig-size="1501,1501" data-comments-opened="1" data-image-meta="{"aperture":"0","credit":"","camera":"","caption":"","created_timestamp":"0","copyright":"","focal_length":"0","iso":"0","shutter_speed":"0","title":"","orientation":"0"}" data-image-title="Mendeley Advisor Community logo_Color" data-image-description="" data-image-caption="" data-medium-file="https://blog.mendeley.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/mendeley-advisor-community-logo_color.png?w=300" data-large-file="https://blog.mendeley.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/mendeley-advisor-community-logo_color.png?w=809" src="https://blog.mendeley.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/mendeley-advisor-community-logo_color.png?w=809" alt="" class="wp-image-49655" width="127" height="127" srcset="https://blog.mendeley.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/mendeley-advisor-community-logo_color.png?w=127 127w, https://blog.mendeley.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/mendeley-advisor-community-logo_color.png?w=254 254w, https://blog.mendeley.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/mendeley-advisor-community-logo_color.png?w=200 200w" sizes="(max-width: 127px) 100vw, 127px" /></figure></div></div> <div class="wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow" style="flex-basis:80%"> <p></p> <p>Interested in the Mendeley Advisor program?

One Advisor whose career exemplifies this is Andrii Kyrylchuk. Initially graduating from the <a rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://kpi.ua/en" target="_blank">National Technical University of Ukraine</a> in Kyiv with a Master’s in Organic Chemistry and Chemical Technology of Organic Substances, Andrii has spent the first decade of his career as a visiting researcher in Finland, Italy, and now as a Postdoctoral Researcher at the <a rel="noreferrer noopener" href="http://University of California, San Francisco" target="_blank">University of California, San Francisco</a> (UCSF) in the United States.</p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">What attracted you to working at UCSF?</h2> <p> UCSF is one of the world leading institutions in medicinal chemistry and life sciences. <a href="https://bkslab.org/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Shoichet’s</a><a href="https://bkslab.org/"> lab</a>, where I am currently working, is among the top research groups that specialize in virtual drug discovery.</p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">How did you become interested in your field?</h2> <p>I’ve been passionate about chemistry since my early childhood. I had my small laboratory at the balcony of the ordinary soviet-style apartment. My bookshelf was full of high-school and university chemical textbooks. I was hunting for new books and glassware across the small city where I lived. So, it was really easy to choose what I want to do with my life.</p> <p>I studied industrial organic chemistry for my master’s, then did organic chemistry in my PhD years, and then transitioned to computational organic chemistry. In addition to the research in organic chemistry, I worked on carbon membranes during my Fulbright Fellowship. In 2020 I got interested in medicinal chemistry and drug discovery, and spent some time working in the leading Ukrainian chemical company Enamine Ltd. This year I joined UCSF and my key focus is virtual screening and early drug discovery.</p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Where do you work the best?

My goal is to present my findings in the same engaging and exciting manner this book is written in.</p> </div> </div> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">What is the best part about working in research?</h2> <p>The joy of discovering something new, that no one have seen before. Connection through the generations of scientists. And the things you do vary a lot: a bit of programming, wet lab work, paper writing, conferences and so on. Overall, research is the most exciting job one can have!</p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">And the most challenging part about working in research?</h2> <p>For me it is time management and expectation management. Starting a new project, one doesn’t know if the main problem can be solved at all, let alone what means are necessary to solve it. And often it takes much more time and effort thanexpected, and the result is far from the expected.</p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">What advice would you give to young researchers?<strong> </strong></h2> <p>My advice would be not to be afraid to change your field! All science is interdisciplinary, so every researcher must know lots of trades. Entering a new field is scary sometimes, but it’s also fun.</p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">What is the most important thing that people should know about Mendeley?</h2> <p>If you make Mendeley a key point in your everyday research, things will become much simpler. People tend to think of reference managers as of tools for writing papers, but Mendeley is much more. When I start a new project, I add all the papers I find to a new folder in Mendeley so that it’s easier to keep all information in one place. A new paper is out from a group I follow? Adding it to Mendeley. Learning new methods or tools? The papers go to a specific subfolder in “Methods” directory. And don’t forget to highlight and make notes while reading!</p> <hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity" /> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">You can read more about Andrii and his work on these sites:</h2> <p>LinkedIn: <a rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/kyrylchuk/" target="_blank">https://www.linkedin.com/in/kyrylchuk/</a><br>University website: <a rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://profiles.ucsf.edu/andrii.kyrylchuk" target="_blank">https://profiles.ucsf.edu/andrii.kyrylchuk</a><br>Own website: <a href="https://kyrylch.uk/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://kyrylch.uk/</a></p> <div class="wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-5 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex"> <div class="wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow" style="flex-basis:20%"><div class="wp-block-image"> <figure class="alignright size-large is-resized"><img data-attachment-id="49655" data-permalink="https://blog.mendeley.com/2019/09/10/do-you-have-enough-chairs/mendeley-advisor-community-logo_color/" data-orig-file="https://blog.mendeley.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/mendeley-advisor-community-logo_color.png" data-orig-size="1501,1501" data-comments-opened="1" data-image-meta="{"aperture":"0","credit":"","camera":"","caption":"","created_timestamp":"0","copyright":"","focal_length":"0","iso":"0","shutter_speed":"0","title":"","orientation":"0"}" data-image-title="Mendeley Advisor Community logo_Color" data-image-description="" data-image-caption="" data-medium-file="https://blog.mendeley.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/mendeley-advisor-community-logo_color.png?w=300" data-large-file="https://blog.mendeley.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/mendeley-advisor-community-logo_color.png?w=809" loading="lazy" src="https://blog.mendeley.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/mendeley-advisor-community-logo_color.png?w=809" alt="" class="wp-image-49655" width="127" height="127" srcset="https://blog.mendeley.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/mendeley-advisor-community-logo_color.png?w=127 127w, https://blog.mendeley.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/mendeley-advisor-community-logo_color.png?w=254 254w, https://blog.mendeley.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/mendeley-advisor-community-logo_color.png?w=200 200w" sizes="(max-width: 127px) 100vw, 127px" /></figure></div></div> <div class="wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow" style="flex-basis:80%"> <p></p> <p>Interested in the Mendeley Advisor program?

Since the 2021 <a href="https://www.elsevier.com/es-mx/events">LATAM North</a> “Elsevier Live” webinar series where we presented the Mendeley Advisor program, we’ve been hearing more from Advisors in the region. Among them are three from the <a href="https://www.uaslp.mx/#gsc.tab=0">Universidad Autónoma</a> <a href="https://www.uaslp.mx/#gsc.tab=0">de San Luis Potosí</a> (UASLP), who share Mendeley know-how by organizing events within <a href="https://www.bibliotecas.uaslp.mx/cgi-bin/koha/sb-acercade.pl">UASLP’s large library system</a>. Advisors <strong>Manuel Armenta</strong>, <strong>Sinuhé</strong> <strong>Rodríguez</strong>, and <strong>Wendy Pérez Díaz</strong> spoke with us about their experiences and inspiration. Each works in a different division within the libraries at UASLP. Manuel supports research and user training at the <a href="https://www.bibliotecas.uaslp.mx/cgi-bin/koha/cictd.pl">Information Center for Science, Technology and Design</a>; Sinuhé is a Librarian Documentalist at the <a href="https://cihbyp.uaslp.mx/">Information Center for Humanities, Library Science and Psychology</a>, and Wendy works as a Librarian in the central Library Services office.</p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">What attracted you to UASLP?</h2> <p>Manuel appreciated “the large university community, opportunities for research collaboration and cultural outreach,” while Sinuhé says that “it is one of the best universities in Mexico and has beautiful libraries.”  Wendy describes the UASLP library system as “the best place to develop professionally and personally.” She added that the university “is a national reference, and the library system is one of its particular strengths.”  </p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">How did you become interested in your field?</h2> <p>Wendy’s interest grew out of a broad curiosity, “a need to have answers to questions. There is a lot of work to be done and a very wide field to be explored.” Sinuhé highlighted interacting with people, noting he likes working “with PhD students and researchers and assessing their information needs.” Manuel discovered his interest by accident. “I was looking at another area, but the course was changed to focus on reference managers.” He appreciates being able to “propose ideas, to look for solutions that can benefit all who need information for their research.”</p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">How long have you been using Mendeley? What’s the most important thing about Mendeley that people should know?</h2> <div class="wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-6 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex"> <div class="wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow" style="flex-basis:50%;"> <p>All three have used Mendeley for eight or more years and highlighted its flexibility and accessibility. Manuel notes that Mendeley’s “free” access is the main thing. Many people he has worked with “think it is necessary to invest money to be able to cite and manage references. When you talk to them about the qualities and wonders within Mendeley and tell them that it is free, they are surprised and excited.” He also appreciates how Mendeley is “in constant growth and adaptation for the benefit of research.” </p> </div> <div class="wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow" style="flex-basis:50%;"> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img data-attachment-id="50276" data-permalink="https://blog.mendeley.com/2022/08/04/advisor-of-the-month-an-awesome-team-from-uaslp-in-mexico/wendy-1/" data-orig-file="https://blog.mendeley.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/wendy-1.jpg" data-orig-size="590,442" data-comments-opened="0" data-image-meta="{"aperture":"0","credit":"","camera":"","caption":"","created_timestamp":"0","copyright":"","focal_length":"0","iso":"0","shutter_speed":"0","title":"","orientation":"0"}" data-image-title="wendy-1" data-image-description="" data-image-caption="" data-medium-file="https://blog.mendeley.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/wendy-1.jpg?w=300" data-large-file="https://blog.mendeley.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/wendy-1.jpg?w=590" loading="lazy" width="590" height="442" src="https://blog.mendeley.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/wendy-1.jpg?w=590" alt="" class="wp-image-50276" srcset="https://blog.mendeley.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/wendy-1.jpg 590w, https://blog.mendeley.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/wendy-1.jpg?w=200 200w, https://blog.mendeley.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/wendy-1.jpg?w=300 300w" sizes="(max-width: 590px) 100vw, 590px" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption"> <em>Wendy Pérez Díaz</em></figcaption></figure> </div> </div> <p>Wendy emphasized how Mendeley allows researchers “to organize their information in a smart, dynamic and professional way.” For Sinuhé, who previously had been managing references and citations manually, it’s the ease of creating citations and bibliography and the flexibility to change the citation style automatically that are Mendeley’s most important strengths.</p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Why did you decide to become an Advisor?</h2> <p>Wendy joined to “teach Mendeley to the university community of researchers and share…experience with Mendeley Reference Manager.” Sinuhé finds the Advisor program supports him in offering a higher quality of service to users, as does Manuel: “I worked with researchers and academics who struggled with citations and references, managing their documents…and finding information was a problem.

He studied medicine (MBBS), completed his master’s degree in public health (MPH) at </em><a rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://www.euclid.int/index.asp" target="_blank"><em>EUCLID University</em></a><em> and obtained a master of philosophy (MPhil) at the Rajarata University of Sri Lanka.</em></p> <p><strong>How did you get into your field?</strong><strong></strong></p> <p>I like teaching, treating, and researching. Also, I had a passion to work in a rural region of my country. Therefore, I choose to become a Lecturer in a faculty of medicine located in a rural region. And, now I am happy teaching medical students, treating patients, and doing research in Anuradhapura. My fields of interest are Pharmacology, Primary Care, Public Health, and Medical Ethics. </p> <p></p> <p class="has-text-align-left"><strong><strong>Where do you do work the best?</strong></strong></p> <p>I feel fortunate to work in fields that focus on broader aspects of medicine. It has given me an opportunity to achieve a diversity of knowledge. Further, I prefer to work in an environment where my teammates have competency, a strong sense of companionship, and a good work ethic. </p> <p><strong>How long have you been using Mendeley?</strong></p> <p>I have been using Mendeley for six years. Since June 2015, I have been a Mendeley Advisor. I am happy to have introduced Mendeley to many undergraduates, postgraduates, and academic staff members of Sri Lanka. </p> <p><strong>What were you using prior to Mendeley?</strong><strong></strong></p> <p>I used to make references manually. Thanks to my Mendeley advisor Dr. Buddhika Wijerathne (my previous colleague and now a general practitioner at Ropes Crossing Medical Practice, Sydney, New South Wales, Australia), I could learn Mendeley at the very beginning of my career. </p> <p><strong>Why did you decide to become an Advisor?</strong></p> <p>To share the treasure that I found – <em>“Mendeley”</em>. The need for Mendeley was felt by many of my academic colleagues who are involved in research work. Also, annual workshops on Mendeley had to be conducted as part of the <em>“Research in medicine”</em> module for the 3<sup>rd</sup> year medical undergraduates at the university. Thus, my role as an official Mendeley advisor was important. I extend my gratitude to the team Mendeley for extending their continuous support. They register my workshops on time and provide useful materials and merchandise as well. </p> <p><strong><strong>What researcher would you like to work with or meet, dead or alive?</strong></strong></p> <p>I would like to meet and work with Dr. David Nalin,<strong> </strong>Professor Emeritus, Center for Immunology and Microbial Diseases, Albany Medical College. He along with Dr. Richard Cash, and their colleagues <em>“successfully tested the efficacy of an oral glucose-electrolyte solution, later known as oral rehydration therapy (ORT), to be used instead of intravenous fluid for the treatment of patients with severe cholera”</em>. The Lancet called it <em>“… </em><a rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/PIIS0140-6736(18)31488-0/fulltext" target="_blank"><em>possibly the greatest medical discovery of this century</em></a><em>”</em>. And, the UNICEF describes its value as follows: <em>“no other single medical breakthrough of the 20<sup>th</sup> century has the potential to prevent so many deaths, over such a short period of time and at so little cost”</em>. The above are compelling reasons for my willingness to meet and work with him. </p> <p><strong><strong>What book are you reading at the moment?</strong> </strong></p> <p>I am reading John Murtagh’s General Practice. The textbook describes the essentials of general practice in depth. It’s a great read for anyone that aspires to progress as a family physician, and I would recommend it to my colleagues and students. </p> <p><strong>What’s the most interesting thing you’ve learned this week?</strong></p> <p>The new variants of Coronavirus. There will be a lot more to learn on the above topic during the next few months as well. </p> <p><strong>What is the best part about working in research?</strong></p> <p>I like reviewing and referencing. It helps me broaden my existing knowledge.</p> <p><strong>And the most challenging part about working in research?</strong><strong></strong></p> <p>Finding suitable collaborations and research grants have always been a challenge. However, once the above two are finalized the journey is much easier.</p> <p><strong>What is the one thing you want people to know about Mendeley?</strong></p> <p>Mendeley is a high-quality reference manager provided free of charge for all. </p> <p><strong>Do you have any advice for young researchers? </strong></p> <p><em>“Research is seeing what everybody else has seen and thinking what nobody else has thought.”</em> – Albert Szent-Györgyi (1893-1986) </p> <hr class="wp-block-separator" /> <p><em>Interested in becoming a Mendeley Advisor? <a rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://www.mendeley.com/advisor-community" target="_blank">Learn more about the Advisor Community</a>.</em></p> </div> <footer class="entry-footer"> <div class="entry-bottom small-part"> </div> </footer> </article> <article id="post-49979" class="post-49979 post type-post status-publish format-standard hentry category-advisor-of-the-month"> <header class="entry-header"> <h1 class="entry-title"><a href="https://blog.mendeley.com/2021/05/05/advisor-of-the-month-poorya-davoodi/" rel="bookmark">Advisor of the Month – Poorya Davoodi</a></h1> <div class="entry-meta small-part"> <span class="posted-on"><i class="fa fa-clock-o space-left-right"></i><a href="https://blog.mendeley.com/2021/05/05/advisor-of-the-month-poorya-davoodi/" rel="bookmark"><time class="entry-date published updated" datetime="2021-05-05T17:55:24+01:00">May 5, 2021</time></a></span><span class="byline"> <i class="fa fa-user space-left-right"></i><span class="author vcard"><a class="url fn n" href="https://blog.mendeley.com/author/kristinblye/">kristinblye</a></span></span> </div> </header> <div class="entry-content"> <div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="alignleft size-large is-resized"><img data-attachment-id="49980" data-permalink="https://blog.mendeley.com/poorya-davoodi/" data-orig-file="https://blog.mendeley.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/poorya-davoodi.jpg" data-orig-size="3072,4096" data-comments-opened="1" data-image-meta="{"aperture":"2.2","credit":"","camera":"iPhone 6","caption":"","created_timestamp":"1615552897","copyright":"","focal_length":"4.15","iso":"80","shutter_speed":"0.03030303030303","title":"","orientation":"0","latitude":"0","longitude":"0"}" data-image-title="poorya-davoodi" data-image-description="" data-image-caption="" data-medium-file="https://blog.mendeley.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/poorya-davoodi.jpg?w=225" data-large-file="https://blog.mendeley.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/poorya-davoodi.jpg?w=768" loading="lazy" src="https://blog.mendeley.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/poorya-davoodi.jpg?w=768" alt="" class="wp-image-49980" width="327" height="435" srcset="https://blog.mendeley.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/poorya-davoodi.jpg?w=327 327w, https://blog.mendeley.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/poorya-davoodi.jpg?w=654 654w, https://blog.mendeley.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/poorya-davoodi.jpg?w=150 150w, https://blog.mendeley.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/poorya-davoodi.jpg?w=225 225w" sizes="(max-width: 327px) 100vw, 327px" /></figure></div> <p><strong>What is your name and job title?</strong><strong></strong></p> <p>Poorya Davoodi.

I can remember clearly when I was very young I would always asked myself why are we here in the world? What is our aim? What do we do?</p> <p>And then in the 16th year of my life, I found my goal. My goal is to make a better and easier life for people, for myself, and my family.</p> <p>In 2020, I applied for the University of Padova, and I have obtained the third rank in the entrance exam, and now I am here in Padova. </p> <p><strong>How long have you been using Mendeley?</strong></p> <p>I have used Mendeley for approximately 2 years.</p> <p><strong>What were you using prior to Mendeley?</strong><strong></strong></p> <p>I used to use EndNote.</p> <p><strong>Why did you decide to become an Advisor?</strong></p> <p>I am a young researcher and when I wanted to learn and start research, I experienced hard days because I did not know what I should do or how I could organize my papers.
