Hi guys,
I'm currently working with an MD, trying to get case reports and other manuscripts published, so I'm hoping that I'll end up being second author or at least acknowledged in the publications. At the same time, I've also secured a volunteer position at a biomechanics lab at my school for the summer. The volunteer position has yet to begin. I'm starting to feel that I won't be able to handle the volunteer position at the lab plus the one with the MD plus studying for the MCAT at the same time. I also want to volunteer with my family physician to get some clinical exposure. So, my question is, would the publication business I'm involved in with the MD count as research experience? Would you advise that I give up the volunteer position in the biomechanics lab? Thanks so much!
