Bernard and Mike Lauer<\/a>, March 25, 2021<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One year later, the COVID-19 pandemic has drastically affected our individual lives and communities. We have observed disproportionate effects observed in underserved populations, leaving them vulnerable to higher infection and mortality risk. These effects have led to an increased reliance on biomedical researchers and clinicians to offer public health solutions to this crisis. Within the research workforce, early-career scientists may bear the brunt of pandemic-related mitigation measures at institutions and limitations due to inability to be in the physical workspace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At NIH, we recognized the many ways the COVID-19 pandemic could adversely affect the biomedical workforce, particularly members of underrepresented groups and vulnerable populations. In October 2020, NIH\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/nexus.od.nih.gov\/all\/2020\/10\/05\/encouraging-participation-in-upcoming-nih-surveys-to-identify-impacts-of-covid-19-on-extramural-research\/\">fielded two online surveys<\/a>\u00a0to objectively document COVID-19\u2019s impact on extramural research. One survey assessed the perspective of individual research administration leaders at extramural institutions, and the other survey assessed the perspective of the researchers themselves. In this post, we offer a high-level overview of general trends noted within both surveys.
