Like many I found Ophtho later in 3rd year of medical school. I was just wondering for those who got involved in research as medical students at this point (I'm assuming stuff like case reports?) Did you do a dedicated rotation in research in ophthalmology or did you just work on stuff while in a regular clinical ophthalmology rotation? Just wondering because my school doesn't have anything specifically set up for a research rotation. Should I be trying to schedule some sort of research away or something? If it makes any difference my step score is 260s and all A's throughout 1st-3rd so far, AOA just no research . Just aiming for a decent clinical program. I will also be doing a rotation with a retina doc that is very active in clinical trials and has his own "research center", but I'm not positive on how involved I could be with that, the coordinator said I could sort of tailor my rotation. Any advice?
