I am someone who for whatever reason has never been able to get research experience. I tried throughout college and my master's program, nada. I wrote up cover letters, sent lots of emails, etc. I applied for research summer programs, always denied. Is there some secret I am missing?
I'm not even looking for highly competitive programs, just like PM&R, Pysch, or Anesthesiology. But I want to be able to get something close to home, so don't want to do the bare minimum and just match anywhere.
What do you recommend for me getting something to gain some experience? I've heard of doing like case reports and stuff. Who should I contact? Just random attendings I find on websites near academic hospitals?
I'm a nontrad from an Epic analyst background with some SQL experience if that helps with anything. Can I use that in any research capacity?
