For many junior investigators at Yale School of Medicine (YSM), the COVID-19 pandemic upended carefully calibrated schedules that allotted time for patient care as well as deadline-sensitive research projects. But as the hospital’s medical intensive care unit (MICU) filled with critically ill patients in the spring of 2020, these physicians found themselves dedicating many more hours to their patients. They would find time for research as best they could.
Balancing clinical care and scholarly projects is vital for physician-scientists as they progress through their academic careers. But as the clinical demands of caring for patients with COVID-19 increased, some faculty were at risk of not completing their career objectives on time. Add to this the need to balance work and home lives, including caring for young children, and the situation presents special challenges for many junior faculty members.
