Org mode is really awesome. A chemist basically does his work with org (http://kitchingroup.cheme.cmu.edu) and recently another guy showing his colleague’s poster done with org and Beamer ( http://irreal.org/blog/?p=7651). I find org and mu4e really make mundane stuff easily done. On a mac and iOS system to get email, calendar, to do list, and notes done, it is usually 4 different programs, with emacs it is just org and mu4e and beorg on mobile.

I'd love to find more examples of org mode used in the sciences! Any for molecular/cell biology type work?

I'm not in that field, but I think you can take a look at org-ref for bibliography, org-babel for R and Matlab. For me org and emacs serve more as a note keeper. I think if you are in a wet lab, many things have to be done with specific programs, but if you don't own a bench, many things on commandline can use org to do.
