Tim Fallon, PhD :verified:(jk)<p>One example I know is a review of how Carl <a href="https://genomic.social/tags/Linneaus" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Linneaus</span></a> used (invented?) index cards for his research: <a href="https://doi.org/10.1016/j.shpsc.2011.10.021" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">doi.org/10.1016/j.shpsc.2011.1</span><span class="invisible">0.021</span></a></p><p>But feels like there should be more retrospectives on how effective scientists structured their "real" work (notwithstanding the kabuki show telling the research story in publications) than just once every 250 years like for Linneaus. </p><p>Would love to know of other examples out there!</p>
