Hey guys, so I'm preparing to decide what research to do for the fall and spring semesters. I'm wondering if it would look better to do research in neuropsych or biomolecular sciences? Does it matter as long as you have research experience? The BMS research would obviously be in a laboratory setting, whereas, the psych would be administering neuropsych tests to people (working to get this particular test validated). Yes, I've thought about doing both, but I'm taking max credits, working, and volunteering. I'd rather participate in one research project whole-heartedly rather than two halfway. Thanks guys!

Does one project have a better chance of leading to an abstract/poster/pub than the other? If there's no difference, I'd say do whichever one you would be more excited to work on. FWIW, all of my research has been in neuropsych and I had a very successful cycle, so it seems that the actual research content wouldn't be as important.
