i am a freshman doing research in the enotomology dept (identifying developmentally regulated genes in mosquitoes). the research has gone well this year and my mentor has offered me an oppertunity to continue next school year, as well as, mentioned the potential of publishing a paper in couple of years (if i keep it up). my question is this: should i (1) continue in the entomology dept since i am already established and there seems to be future potential, or (2) decline the offer in hopes of attaining a research position more directly related to a biomedical field (perhaps one that I am more interested in)?
