Impact of COVID-19 lockdown in a biomedical research campus: A gender perspective analysis

Abstract: From March to September 2020, researchers working at a biomedical scientific campus in Spain faced two lockdowns and various mobility restrictions that affected their social and professional lifestyles. The working group “Women in Science,” which acts as an independent observatory of scientific gender inequalities on campus launched an online survey to assess the impact of COVID-19 lockdowns on scientific activity, domestic and caregiving tasks, and psychological status. The survey revealed differences in scie… Show more

“…Insights from the Dutch DJA-LNVH survey illustrate that female researchers, especially those with responsibilities for young children, are in a more precarious career phase than their male colleagues and experience more stress regarding their research progress and future in science (LNVH, 2021). The prevailing scientific literature aligns with these findings, indicating that female researchers, particularly those with caregiving responsibilities, have been more severely affected by the pandemic (Harper et al, 2020;Izquierdo-Useros et al, 2022;KNAW, 2022;Sohrabi et al, 2021). This trend, highlighting a gender-specific differentiation in the impacts of the pandemic on the scientific community, should also be reflected in our results derived from tweets, leading to our second hypothesis: H2: The effect (H1) is significantly stronger for female researchers than for male researchers…”
