The time it takes to complete different research actions can be modified in various ways.
The most notable one is upgrading your reduced research time stat, which will affect every action in the Research menu with the exception of Scientists travelling to and from planets. Other ways include paying Diamonds or watching ads to instantly complete one research action or completing Daily Quests and collecting Red Bacteria to reduce the remaining time for all active research actions.
Cancelling a research action will cause all the progress go to waste and return the Scientists to the player.

Modifiers
Reduced Research Time
Reduced research time (RRT) is a bonus that can be obtained from Evolved Bacteria or Dark Matter Institute. It decreases the time that it takes to complete activities in the Research Labs. Sending and recalling Scientists in the Planetary Research is not affected by this stat.

Rewarded Ads
Research ads reduce the remaining research time of a selected action by 1 hour.
Up to two ads can be watched before an 8 hour cooldown becomes active. To view the option to watch the ad, press and hold on an active research action.

Red Bacteria
One of possible Red Bacteria rewards is a reducing the remaining time for all research activities. The free reward provides a 5% reduction, which can be raised to 25% by watching a short video ad.

Daily Quests
There's a random chance that a Tier 3 or Tier 4 daily quest will give some reduction to active research time (5% reduction for completing a Tier 3 quest and 15% for completing Tier 4).
The reduction is applied at the moment you collect the reward.
Main page: Daily Quests
Diamond Purchases
Diamonds can be spent to instantly complete any research action that currently is in progress. The cost depends on the remaining research time.
The cost for instantly completing nanobot production is calculated differently from other actions, but it also depends on the amount of remaining research time.
