In general, if you are conducting research that is NOT taking place at a UK HealthCare facility, you must follow institutional guidance in the Fall 2021 Guidebook. If you are conducting research at a UK HealthCare facility, you must follow UK HealthCare requirements. Send questions to research-covid@uky.edu.
