hi....thank u so much...to gain an experience what we can do is shadowing a dentist,preceptorship and volunteering activities...now if i want to volunteer as a research assistant(not as a job but only 2 enhance my resume),what path should i follow...should i first try and get into a preceptorship program and then try for it or should i try by mailing the research faculty or look for studies requiring volunteers...im an indian dentist with one year clinical experience but no experience in the research field...
