The Remote Research Enterprise: Part I

Presented by

Host: Francie Diep | HP Speaker: Mike Belcher

About this talk

In the wake of the Covid-19 outbreak, universities have quickly shifted their classes online. But opening up research, labs, and ongoing scientific experiments to remote possibilities is a much harder task. In this two-part forum we’ll discuss how institutions are assessing what research fields can best make such a transition, how they plan for research continuity given the uncertainty of the pandemic, and how to make sure faculty have access to critical data sets and computing power when the campus is closed. The first session will explore the immediate challenge of the pivot to conducting research remotely, what tools are being made available to help, and how to maintain security of important data. The second will look at the near future. As colleges potentially reopen campus, or at least parts of campus, how do labs and research resources factor in? And how do key funding sources, such as the National Science Foundation and other federal programs, help or hurt that planning. Hosted by Francie Diep, The Chronicle’s top writer on university research, the discussion would include top scientific experts and administrators to offer advice on how to navigate the challenging times.
