As the header says, what technical skills do you think will be most valuable for therapy development in the next 10-20 years? i.e. for treatments like immunotherapy, gene/epigenetic therapy. I’m not sure if focusing more on stats/machine learning or wet lab skills will be more useful to focus on...

Just finished first semester as a sophomore, I know I didn't get started as quickly as I should've, but I'm gonna start research in a couple weeks, apart from that I've just maintained a 4.0 gpa without any other extracurriculars. I don't want to take a lot of gap years, I would be fine applying...

Basically the title. I don't know anything about clinical research or research in general. My medical school starts in 2 months so I was hoping to use this free time to learn something useful. Also has anyone done Malke Asaad's courses? Also, should I learn how to statistical analysis in SPSS or...

I am doing some research at my top choice and one of my co-investigators who faculty at the med school offered to write a letter of recommendation, however, I've already turned in the maximum number of LORs and it's too late in the process. Is it acceptable to ask them to put in a good word with...

Hello SDN community! I'm a doctoral candidate in a clinical psychology program recruiting participants for my dissertation study examining two brief, online versions of an evidence-based intervention for anxiety/depression. Please consider participating if you are interested and/or consider...

I don't want to focus too much on my sob story, but the gist of it was my biggest support system passed away during undergrad and I spiraled. To get straight to the point, I graduated in the spring with a 2.7 GPA, have over hundreds of community service hours, research, and I'm currently a CMA...

Please see pdf attachment for additional information and how to apply.

Hi! I am currently a M1 and interested in plastics. My institution only has 1 board certified plastic surgeon (no program) who does not do much research–if any at all. ENT at my school is huge and is in charge of almost all facial plastics and other plastic related surgeries. I know I'm thinking...

Hi, I’m currently one year out from college and am working as an applied ML researcher in industry. I’m starting the med school application process now but am having doubts about whether I’ll be able to use my technical background if I continue down the MD route. Although I certainly want to be...

Hello! I'm a recent B.S. graduate that's trying to look for work in a research lab in the interim of trying to get into a masters, then further on Med School. It took me about six years (an extra two years after I walked at commencement) to officially graduate because of financial issues and...

Hello everyone! What are some of the difficult experiences you have faced when trying to publish or collaborate on psychology research? What did you learn from those experiences? My purpose for writing this is not to complain or be negative, but to heal and learn from these experiences. Here...

Hi, I was browsing through the forums and saw some discussion about basic research being more valued than clinical but wanted to know if this was true. I know it is harder to publish in basic research so that would make sense, but I was wondering if it would improve my chances if I added a basic...

Fresh MS2 here - I keep hearing M4's (and some M3's) saying to not worry about being unsure of a speciality choice. However, I know there are certain fields that would definitely prefer to see speciality-specific research going into residency (from what i hear some (not all) include...

Howdy! My sophomore year of undergrad is about to start and I'm getting started on my clinical experience. This semester, I am in a hospital system volunteer program based in the city of my university. The program has a ton of different volunteer jobs available, so you can choose a different one...

Hey everyone, I volunteered in a research lab during the summer of 2015, which was the summer before my senior year of high school. I initially came into the lab wanting to produce a project that I can use in the Intel Science Fair. On the first day, the PI introduced me to everyone in the lab...

Incoming MS1. Apologies in advance if this post sounds neurotic since I am asking for advice pretty early in the process. I was a really low-performing student (~2 GPA) in HS, and would not have made it into a medical school without doing research before ugrad started. Hoping to gain some...

I'm a med student with a background in the military (nonmedical) and afterward working as an EMT. I find both these worlds/populations fascinating and have been trying to conceive of or get involved in research at the intersection between the two, but have been thus far unsuccessful. I've often...

Hey everyone! Hope you're all well. I'm a new member here and was wondering if I could get some more insight into the US MD application process. So a little background about me: I am a Canadian citizen who attended a Canadian university for undergrad and also currently attending a Canadian...

Interesting research that rings pretty true for me. What do you think? CITATION Lee, A. A., Sripada, R. K., Hale, A. C., Ganoczy, D., Trivedi, R. B., Arnow, B., & Pfeiffer, P. N. (2021). Psychotherapy and depressive symptom trajectories among VA patients: Comparing dose-effect and good-enough...

I’m not a good student. I’ve gotten nearly straight C and low C’s at that. I’m leaning towards giving up the dissection work study (20 hours/week) and putting my efforts towards getting some extra board study in as well as making sure I have time to relax. I didn’t take time for myself over...

Hello all. So a few days ago I had a meeting with a physician for a research assistant position for his clinical trial. It's not in a typical wet lab, but my role consists of looking through patient EHR health records and their lab work and comparing that data with them after their procedure is...

I am looking for input on if/how I should be listing an in-progress review article in AMCAS Work and Activities section, writing about it in secondaries, etc. Some info: I am 4th author of 8 I created all the figures, did some editing, and filled in holes wherever more information or further...

I'm starting M1 in August and I am considering taking an online course to learn R or another data analysis tool. I would like to pursue research fairly early in med school (maybe wishful thinking?) but I didn't gain much data analysis experience in my undergrad research. Would it be beneficial...

This is a long shot but anyone else apply to the fellowship still waiting to hear back? They said they’d announce awardees yesterday. Not sure if they just aren’t sending out rejections yet.

I am working on my school list and I am interested in linguistics and medicine as well as research. I wanted to make sure I am not missing any schools. Does anyone know of medical schools with a year out program for research? Does anyone know of schools that have extra curriculars, classes...

M1 - My research interests are in Psychoradiology, realistically speaking I don't know if I would be able to get involved into this sort of research while in med school. I know this field is new and probably needs a lot of effort, which I don't mind placing. Yet, I am interested in getting some...

Hey Everyone, I have been accepted to medical school and already thinking about getting into residencies 😂 . I know research is important and I was wondering how students get involved in research, how do they choose the topic of their research if they have no background info, and how do so many...

Hi all! I'm an incoming MS1 at a top 10 research-oriented school. I was wondering how important research will be moving forward in the medical pipeline. I'm asking because: 1) I'm not aiming for uber competitive specialties - I think I'd like to do primary care or emergency medicine since...
