It's my first time posting on this forum so forgive me if I accidentally violate a rule.
I am a Sophomore pre-med student and I was interested in doing aquatic animal research (sensory perception when introduced to various stimuli). The available description for the lab I got an offer from says "We use a variety of techniques to probe the relationship between nervous system structure and sensory function, ranging from studies of peripheral sensory structures and the organization of sensory processing in the brain, to behavioral and physiological studies of sensory abilities." I'm going to assume it isn't a regular wet lab. In the case that it isn't a wet lab, will medical school admissions hold it against me that I didn't do wet lab research? I'm also not sure on how to connect animal nervous systems to anything a doctor would do. Any thoughts?
