Was wondering if anyone on here is currently working on campus at the NIH in Bethesda and could give me some insight into how Covid restrictions are affecting operations?
Long story short: I interviewed with a lab for a postbac spot, but the hold up is the in-person lab capacity restrictions. My understanding of things is that guidelines coming from the Office of the Director still have a strict cap on the number of individuals that can be in lab at any given time. My prospective lab is currently right at the cap and is not going to be able to bring any additional people onto campus unless that cap gets loosened. Has anyone heard anything about loosening up restrictions or is anyone else running into any similar problems? I would appreciate any insight or speculation anyone has.
