    Hello! I submitted my primary app and have started to receive my secondaries. About a week ago, my case report was published. It was not included anywhere on my primary and for a lot of schools, there is not a space on the secondary to indicate that I have a publication. When would it be...

    Navigating authorship?

    I know that having a publication looks great when applying to med schools, so I've made this desire clear to my PI. He already turned down one of my ideas for a paper (which was to expand my independent research poster) and gave it to a grad student to publish instead. Fine, I get that there's a...
