The primary sources for this post are interviews with scientists, a post on the 3-pass approach, and a quora post. There was very little curated content that discussed reading scientific papers, so I found forums to be really helpful.

I’m hoping to have more conversations about how to effectively read DS/CS/ML/stats papers. If you have ideas/tips/tricks/questions, please leave a comment! It would help me, your fellow readers, and maybe even yourself.
