How does the coronavirus outbreak affect your research?

Hi all,

After a few emails from coauthors this morning stating that they were prioritising online lecture prep over revisions and cancellation of data collection plans for a funded study (I’m in social sciences), I was wondering about the effect of the coronavirus outbreak on research productivity. Are you considering any changes to your work? Are your universities/funders/colleagues adjusting expectations in any way?

EDIT: Well, this has turned into a very interesting exchange of experiences (and RIP my inbox, but totally worth it).

This came up in a meeting yesterday. For many of the TT faculty in our department, research requires travel (domestic and international) and in some cases travel to other universities for fellowships and archival research but now those other universities are closed. The university has focused exclusively on addressing covid-19’s impact on teaching but we’re all wondering how we’re supposed to do research and whether the tenure clock will be adjusted.
