• W3204486952 abstract "‘I believe that man will not merely endure: he will prevail. He is immortal, not because he alone among creatures has an inexhaustible voice, but because he has a soul, a spirit capable of compassion and sacrifice and endurance.’ – William Faulkner December 2021 marks 2 years since the first reports of an outbreak were covered by a handful of international media outlets. Few could have envisioned what would transpire over the coming months. None can accurately predict how things will unfold in the years to come. The pandemic continues, diminished in some places, unabated in others, and periodically re-emerging throughout. Although the future remains uncertain, we have chosen to use this anniversary as an opportunity to reflect on the indelible aspects of this uniquely difficult epoch and our hopes for the future. After learning of the passing of community members, including authors with whom we have collaborated on articles for Trends journals, we were moved to create this reflection, in part, to remember all those whose scientific achievements endure beyond their time with us. We also acknowledge those authors and reviewers who, despite suffering personal losses from the pandemic, continue to fulfil promised commitments. As the COVID-19 outbreak rapidly evolved into a global pandemic, phrases based on scientific principles such as 'flatten the curve', 'herd immunity', '6 feet apart', and 'hotspots' assumed unprecedented importance in everyday life. The phrase 'follow the science' soon transformed into a trending tagline, with the status of scientists seemingly elevated to that of celebrities. Some medics and frontline workers were even featured on covers of fashion magazinesi, an unusual recognition of their vital contributions to the community at large, and rightfully so. Yet, despite the esteem and accomplishments, scientists and clinicians are human and vulnerable to the deadly virus they have led the fight against. As part of this reflection, the Trends team recognizes the scientists, researchers, clinicians, and healthcare workers who lost their lives to COVID-19, whether directly or indirectly. These include individuals who succumbed to complications arising from SARS-CoV-2 infections, including those whose deaths reflect the growing mental health toll of the pandemic. Still others suffered delayed diagnosis and treatment for chronic illnesses and diseases because of overburdened, nearly broken healthcare systems. More recently, we have been shocked to learn of vaccinated healthcare workers who nonetheless died from COVID-19 as they continued to battle outbreaks. These are sobering reminders of the sacrifices that have been made by so many, and the magnitude of the loss endured by our community, and countless others. Of all the phrases that have become a part of our collective vocabulary during the pandemic, one became a global rallying cry as we faced a common threat that forced us to distance ourselves from each other: ‘All in this together'. The scientific community has embraced this call for collective action, sustaining an unparalleled pace of progress and discovery over the past 2 years, even in the face of significant setbacks. With lockdowns in place worldwide, laboratory closures and restrictions imperiled research on a global scale. In some institutions, scientists and clinicians were required or encouraged to stop their personal research to instead help fight COVID-19 by processing tests, formulating sanitizers, donating equipment, and/or working on the frontlines [1.Wadman M. Pandemic scientists fight burnout.Science. 2021; 372: 13-14Crossref PubMed Scopus (19) Google Scholar]ii–iv. Laboratory heads scrambled to sustain their research and keep their teams safe, with some even struggling to obtain basic supplies and keep model organisms alive. In academia, colleges and universities faced existential threats as they grappled with plummeting student enrolment and the challenges of remote learning. Under these circumstances, some researchers have lost their jobs. Those who remain face an exceptionally fraught path for navigating even standard career milestones such as preparing grants and tenure packages. Increasingly, there is strong evidence that this path is more fraught for women researchers, researchers with children, and early-career researchers [2.Woolston C. ‘Less pipetting and more thinking’: scientists carry on through the pandemic.Nature. 2021; 592: 806Crossref Scopus (14) Google Scholar, 3.Collins C. Productivity in a pandemic.Science. 2020; 369: 603Crossref PubMed Scopus (33) Google Scholar, 4.Carr R.M. et al.Academic careers and the COVID-19 pandemic: reversing the tide.Sci. Trans.

Behav. 2020; 4: 880-883Crossref PubMed Scopus (411) Google Scholar]v–vii. Undeniably, the pandemic has also taken a significant toll on the mental well-being of researchers and students alike; individuals have coped and dealt with the severe restrictions and isolation with varying levels of success that frankly depend on the day, month, and season. The wounds inflicted by the pandemic on the scientific community run deep and will certainly take time to heal. Science continues, despite everything, because of the compassion, sacrifice, and endurance of our communities. Those with access to their laboratories worked grueling hours to advance coronavirus research, while those barred from their space embraced creative approaches to continue their own, still vital, research. Group meetings and departmental visits through virtual platforms ensured that past connections were maintained, while still providing a path forward for forging new links. Institutions and grant agencies stepped in to provide tenure extensions and funding resources to ease the crises. Where possible, COVID-19 tests were made free and available to many scientific staff members and students, allowing research to progress in some formats. Scientific editors managed unprecedented volumes of manuscripts, accelerating scientific publishing to meet the acute demands of the communities while maintaining scientific integrity. In addition, relevant COVID-19 research and other materials have also been made freely available to the publicviii. As Trends editors, we have worked closely with our communities to address aspects of the pandemic – from how it impacts science and scientists to synthesizing reviews that summarize the explosion of data in an accessible mannerix. Meetings and conferences organized by various sections of the scientific community turned virtual, providing access to many who would not have otherwise been able to attend. The pandemic has captured the public’s attention and interest; in response, scientists have used social media to discuss COVID-19 with the public directly. These discussions cover all aspects of the COVID-19 pandemic, such as conspiracies on the origin of the virus, the effects and myths of vaccination, basic immunological concepts with easy-to-follow animations, and the science behind the effectiveness of wearing a mask, to name but a few [6.Editorial Scientists, keep an open line of communication with the public.Nat. Med. 2020; 26: 1495Crossref PubMed Scopus (22) Google Scholar,7.Thorp H.H. Scientists' lanes and headwinds.Science. 2021; 372: 217Crossref PubMed Scopus (13) Google Scholar]x. It is our hope that the community will continue these successful public outreach efforts even after we emerge from this pandemic. Together, these efforts have led, and continue to lead, to astounding achievements. From sequencing the SARS-CoV-2 genome and sharing it with the world, to unearthing host factors involved in viral entry, characterizing the methods of transmission and spread of the virus, and continued genomic surveillance of new viral variants, the scientific community is working tirelessly and collaboratively to develop and deploy tools to combat the pandemic. Nations with the means to do so are investing an incredible amount of funding into COVID-19 research, helping streamline clinical trials and expedite approvals for life-saving therapies and vaccines. The collective effort, unity, and collaboration on a global scale renders it possible to move therapies from bench to bedside and is the ultimate reminder that we are ‘all in this together’. As the pandemic continues to run its uncertain course, we will prevail by remembering what we have all experienced, witnessed, and endured over these past 2 years, whether together or apart. iwww.vogue.co.uk/news/article/keyworkers-july-2020-issue-british-vogue iiwww.sciencemag.org/features/2021/01/pandemic-pivot-how-scientists-answered-call-diagnostic-tests iiiwww.gov.uk/government/news/ukaeas-helping-hand-for-the-nhs ivhttps://cen.acs.org/safety/lab-safety/Getting-back-lab-during-COVID-19/98/i19 vwww.bordertelegraph.com/news/national/18826659.pandemic-threatens-research-early-career-scientists-look-leave/ vihttps://edition.cnn.com/2020/06/18/health/coronavirus-research-gender-bias-scn/index.html viiwww.forbes.com/sites/ashleystahl/2021/04/02/struggles-for-working-parents-are-likely-to-remain-post-pandemic/?sh=437133ed6856 viiiwww.cell.com/COVID-19 ixwww.cell.com/trends/collections/apart-together-pandemic xwww.the-scientist.com/careers/science-and-policy-collide-during-the-pandemic-67882" @default.
