Impact of COVID-19 on early career scientists: an optimistic guide for the future	2020-07-30		.txt	text/plain	2374	92	36	While scientists at all stages in their careers have been impacted by these changes to the research environment, early career scientists such as postdoctoral fellows and junior faculty are particularly vulnerable during these unconventional times. Because early career scientists are in the process of establishing independence during times of restricted research activities, we believe that they are particularly susceptible to the direct and indirect effects of the COVID-19 crisis. To circumvent this loss, we suggest that research advisors sustain scientific creativity and knowledge sharing by holding virtual lab meetings and journal clubs, which can build a sense of community and routine among group members and support research productivity. We also suggest that early career scientists hold virtual meetings with colleagues and collaborators to update them about their research projects and use this as an opportunity for informal feedback and conceptualization of subsequent studies. The scientific community as a whole will be even more drastically impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic if early career scientists are not supported.	./cache/cord-355036-qa0cjszv.txt	./txt/cord-355036-qa0cjszv.txt
