University Research PM 2026 | Grants Papers Lab

Academia is 'Publish or Perish'.

GitScrum helps you publish. Use Boards for the 'Paper Pipeline': Draft -> Advisor Review -> Submission -> Revision -> Published.

Wiki holds the endless Literature Review notes. Milestones track the strict deadlines of funding bodies (NSF, ERC, NIH).

Frequently Asked Questions

Still have questions? Contact us at customer.service@gitscrum.com

Collaborate with others?

Yes, invite external co-authors as 'Guests' on specific Projects (papers) without giving them access to your whole lab workspace.

How to handle citations?

While not Zotero, use Wiki pages to list key references and link them to the section of the paper draft where they will be used.

Is it good for students?

Yes, PIs (Principal Investigators) can assign tasks to Grad Students and track their progress on experiments week by week.

Can we track budget?

Use 'Cost' fields on tasks (e.g., 'Reagent Purchase') to burn down the grant money allocated in the Milestone view.
