With many parts of the world adjusting to new ways of working due to COVID-19, the cancer research community is reacting and adapting.
We’ve compiled a list of useful online resources for our members and researchers who are adjusting to new ways of working. It includes articles and advice on how to work from home successfully, remote learning, adjusting to research outside of the lab, websites, tools, webinars and podcasts.
Even if we can’t meet in person, there is a great deal we can still learn from each other. If you have a suggestion for a link to add to this page, please email it to ben.garrett@eacr.org.
