Planning, Project Management, and Task Management On this page you will find resources to help with remote work, remote meetings, and remote communications, with an emphasis on resources related to: In this calculus, desktop computers and workstations in Penn State offices and labs are more difficult to use safely than virtual computers and workstations deployed in professionally-managed data centers, accessed securely via university-owned laptops. The further up that scale you go, the more resources can be invested in rigorous personal protection protocols. ![]() The bottom line is that each cyberinfrastructure deployment choice shifts the burden of physical presence from one person to another-from yourself, to your lab staff, your local IT staff, university IT staff, or national-scale providers. We encourage you to consider this as you choose the providers of your computational and storage services. In the context of the Office of the Senior Vice President for Research’s Guidance on Reducing Research Activity in Labs, Environmental Health and Safety’s Guidance on Working on Campus, and HR's Guidance on Remote Work, we emphasize that larger-scale service providers are better positioned than smaller-scale providers to implement and enforce rigorous protocols around social distancing, personal protective equipment, and reduced human presence in their data centers. We recognize that not all work can be performed remotely-we cannot solve the problem of wet labs, animal research, EEG administration, toggling DIP switches, etc-but we are developing approaches to help you move a large portion of your research from onsite to offsite. The materials on this page are designed to help researchers reimagine their research enterprises to minimize their reliance on physical presence at specific locations. Contact the Office of the Associate CIO for Research for a quick or comprehensive consultation on issues and concerns on moving/accessing your research activities online: health and safety of the Penn State community is the University’s highest priority and the Office of the Associate CIO for Research is committed to helping researchers execute their research effectively while operating from remote locations away from Penn State offices, labs, and facilities.
