Hi all,
I'm going to be an incoming M1 this fall, and had a quick question about research the summer after the first year.
I'm currently a research assistant at a nonprofit research org that does a lot of work in cancer epidemiology, surveillance, prevention etc. I've had some really great hands-on experience with public health and epi research. While I'm going to be leaving in August, my supervisor has left the option open for me to come back next summer if I'm still interested.
So my question is ... does it matter that this research isn't more bench or biomedical in nature? Is there a preference in terms of the type of research experience you'd be expected to have? Also, I won't be doing this at my school .. would that be a problem?
Thanks for your help!
