Coping with COVID: How a Research Team Learned To Stay Engaged in This Time of Physical Distancing

Danica M Sutherland et al. mBio. .

Abstract

Physical distancing imposed by the COVID-19 pandemic has led to alterations in routines and new responsibilities for much of the research community. We provide some tips for how research teams can cope with physical distancing, some of which require a change in how we define productivity. Importantly, we need to maintain and strengthen social connections in this time when we can't be physically together.

Keywords: COVID-19; SARS CoV-2; mentoring; pandemic; physical distancing; research lab; social distancing; virology.
