 The COVID-19 pandemic has caused many clinical and translational scientists and staff to work remotely in order to prevent the spread of the virus. This has had an impact on their research programs, as many have been forced to slow down or stop their work due to the lack of face-to-face interaction and the absence of routine activities. In order to better understand this issue, a survey was sent out to Colorado Clinical and Translational Sciences Institute, CCTSI, scientists and staff in April 2020. The survey asked about their experiences working remotely, including any barriers encountered and strategies used to maintain productivity. The results showed that most respondents, 75%, were female, ranging from 21 to 73 years old, with a majority having either a PhD, 44%, or MD, 55%. Additionally, prior to the pandemic, 77% of respondents had never or rarely worked remotely, while 76% reported that it had some effect on their research program. Furthermore, 71% of respondents said that it had slowed or stopped their research. Common barriers included missing interactions with colleagues, 6. This article was authored by Heather M.
