Quick question about research. I have two research job offers for this upcoming summer. One is from an HHMI lab at Rockefeller, where I'll be studying the transcriptional program underlying epidermal stem cell differentiation (with Elaine Fuchs if that means anything to anyone). The other is a more clinically-oriented position, looking at alteration in gene expression profile from patients with a variety of skin diseases (with a very young professor). Since dermatolgy is one of the fields that I'm exploring, I was wondering whether it would be better to take the basic science project (bigger name, albeit, Elaine is not an MD but less clinical relevance/I alread have a PhD in a basic science) or do the clinical research (more relevance in the clinic, but less of a "big name").
Any advice?
