  • What do you want others to know about what’s happening with your research due to COVID?
  • Are there any published articles in the social and behavioral sciences that are particularly insightful on these topics?
  • After living with COVID for two years, how do you see it impacting social and behavioral scientists in the future?
  • What have the news media and government officials gotten wrong about COVID’s impact on the social and behavioral sciences?
