I'm an M1 and very excited to conduct clinical derm research at a top research center this summer. I currently attend a mid-tier medical school, and have been pursuing some derm research here as well. Because derm is such a small field, and who you know can really open doors for you, I'm hoping for any advice in terms of networking at a different institution. It's in a completely different state, and I don't have any prior knowledge about anyone in the department. When I had a phone interview with my mentor, she indicated that I would interact with her only about once/wk. How do I make the most of my time with her and the department?
Any other advice would be greatly appreciated, thank you!
