Can A surgeon (I mean future surgeon) get some help?

Best to contact your school advisor for specific instructions.

 

Are you at BGU?

 

Yeah, you really need to talk to someone at your school, as it's just too much stuff to write down here.

 

Find yourself a practicing surgeon @your medical school, preferably one with a high rank like full professor. Attach yourself to him. Try to spend time observing him in the OR. Ask if he knows anyone who needs a research assistant for next summer.

You could search the AMA and AMSA web sites for lists of summer opportunities. Your med school should have such a list also (? student or academic affairs office).

Try to get a research position this summer, working with a surgeon who has published numerous research papers. Perhaps you could find something @Columbia in New York, if you try. Try sending a short email to the chair of the general surgery dept. there, and perhaps other faculty who are involved in research. Working with an MD is helpful > working for a PhD. Working for an MD surgeon > working for an MD in other specialties (i.e internal medicine trained, etc.).

 

I agree with talking to a surgeon chair at yoru school, get involved in the school surgery club, etc....

 

My school has lots of specialty interest groups with people that can answer these questions. See if your school has them too.
