Introduction: The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted clinical research across the world. Though these disruptions pale in comparison to the enormous amount of human loss and suffering caused by the disease, they have a significant impact on study teams that have the ability to complete research studies and may significantly affect study results.

Methods: Data collection took place after a few months after the COVID-19 pandemic was almost reduced. The study was conducted for a month via an online survey; 51 subjects were included in the data analysis from India.

Results: COVID-19 had majorly affected the researchers and their research. Due to this, it was difficult for the researchers to continue the lab-based research from home thus, it resulted in the failure of their ongoing research.

Conclusion: The conclusion to the problem of continuing research or suggestions for the future pandemic-like situation were suggested by almost 49%-51% of people from the survey conducted.
