We read with interest the recent paper published by Khusid et al (1), highlighting the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on resident well-being and educational outcomes. We too have sensed the urgent need for adapting clinical, educational and scientific practice to appropriately attend to the public health crisis. As stated by the authors (1), significant changes have been reported in the structure of academic centers with an important impact on the daily practice of health professionals including resident physicians. Accordingly, teaching hospitals have cancelled academic meetings and many clinicians and investigators may consider it not feasible to follow the rigorous procedures set by research regulation in order to carry out research activities in the context of the pandemic (2).

Abstract
We read with interest the recent paper published by Khusid et al (1), highlighting the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on resident well-being and educational outcomes. We too have sensed the urgent need for adapting clinical, educational and scientific practice to appropriately attend to the public health crisis. As stated by the authors (1), significant changes have been reported in the structure of academic centers with an important impact on the daily practice of health professionals including resident physicians. Accordingly, teaching hospitals have cancelled academic meetings and many clinicians and investigators may consider it not feasible to follow the rigorous procedures set by research regulation in order to carry out research activities in the context of the pandemic (2).Pubblicazioni consigliate
