Current Status: 
Yellow
We are ramping up our on-campus laboratory research using a phased approach. The goal is to ramp up research in a thoughtful and deliberate manner that protects our researchers and our community, allows our important research mission to move forward, and enables us to monitor our situation, and make necessary adjustments.
Lab Research Ramp-up Survey
The OVCR has developed a brief anonymous survey to obtain feedback on your experiences since the transition to Yellow Level, to understand where the challenges are, where procedures need to be adjusted, and where communication needs to be improved. For this survey, we specifically want to learn about your experiences since July 15th during the Yellow Level. The survey will be available now through September 4, 2020, and will take approximately 5-10 minutes to complete.
