If you're feeling overwhelmed by the constant demands of research—keeping up with the latest literature, writing papers, applying for grants, finding research gaps—you’re not alone. I’ve been there too. That’s why in this video, I explore how to use deep research tools in smarter, more effective ways. I’m not just talking about summarising papers. I’m talking about using tools like chatgpt deep research, gemini deep research, open ai deep research, and perplexity to transform how you actually think about your work.

I walk through 10 specific strategies I’ve developed for integrating deep research into an academic workflow. Each one is designed to reduce friction and give you more clarity, speed, and insight across every stage of the research process—from brainstorming ideas to evaluating methodologies to preparing for public communication. These tools are capable of much more than most people realise. In fact, most researchers are barely scratching the surface of what's possible.
This video is especially useful for early-career researchers, PhD students, or anyone starting a research project who wants to stay ahead of the curve. But even seasoned academics will find new ways to streamline their work. Using tools like perplexity and chatgpt deep research, you can quickly identify emerging trends, uncover under-explored questions in your field, and build more compelling arguments—faster.
My goal is to show you not just how to use deep research, but why these methods matter for the future of research. Whether you're working in science, the humanities, or anything in between, mastering these tools can help you reclaim time, reduce burnout, and even enjoy the process again.
