Learning from Rapid Response, Innovation, and Adaptation to the COVID Crisis: A Virtual Workshop Series

Completed

Topics

The world continues to grapple with the profound impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. The crisis mobilized action by universities, companies, labs, and federal, state, and local governments to organize resources and networks; instigate new partnerships; adapt to uncertain circumstances; and innovate solutions to public health and economic challenges. The transformative impacts of these actions on the culture and productivity of the research enterprise merit further consideration. This series will consider what can be learned from collaboration, innovation, and adaptation to the COVID crisis across research institutions, and how these lessons might be applied to strengthen the enterprise against future crises.
