Hey guys!

I'm interested in pursuing research in addition to clinical work. I was wondering if it is worth contacting the schools to learn who would be interviewing me. I figure that if a PI or any researcher is interviewing me then it would be a good idea to look up their recent publications...just to be prepared.

What's your advice? Thanks!
 
I'm not sure if they would divulge that information, but I suppose it doesn't hurt to try! Just don't make it a highlight of your interview and forcefeed them the fact that you know about their work or anything; mention it in passing, catch 'em off guard and they'll be pleasantly surprised. 🙂
