An error of omission might come back to bite you in the behind. Is there a way that you can smooth things over with the first professor?
Many schools DO email/call contacts for verification (the more strange the description ==> likelihood of a call) so always plan for this.
Good luck with everything 🙂

I wouldn't consider it an omission to not list a research experience.

FWIW, I'd consider 60 hours a relatively small research experience- that would be equivalent to about 1 credit hour in one semester. So probably not a huge deal to leave out, especially if nothing significant (publication, poster, etc.) resulted from it.

This^^^^. The 60 hours is not going to make an application, but a crappy reference on the off chance someone is called certainly will break it.

There is literally no reason to include anything on any application where there is a chance the reference will not say nice things about the applicant. This goes for anything, anywhere, but especially something as brutally competitive as a med school application.

You are under no obligation to include every activity in which you've every engaged. Due to the short time frame and the personal conflict with the PI, you'd be wise to omit this experience.

I also would not include. 60 hours of research is irrelevant, and I would not feel strongly about including it even if your PI didn't hate you. Since your PI *did* hate you it's a no-brainer to leave this off.
