Creating a logbook for a research project
Hi! My project is a proposal for a vaccine. As I cannot try to create the vaccine, my project is essentially research. How do I record the process in my logbook? Thank you!

Re: Creating a logbook for a research project
Hello emigrace,
It looks like you have been working on your project. Logbooks are most helpful if you record your work as you are doing it. But if you want to record information after the experiment is over, you can use the logbook as a history of your project.
Perhaps I don't understand your question! Let us know if this helps!

Re: Creating a logbook for a research project
Hi there,
I agree with the previous expert. I am also slightly confused about what you're exactly doing for your research project. Are you working in a lab testing different components to see which is effective for a vaccine, or are you doing some research on the internet about the topic of vaccine production? If you give us more details about what you intend to work out, we'll be able to give you better advice for how to go about keeping a logbook of your work.
Best,
Connie
