Hi Guys,
I've been looking for some options to get some more research and perhaps a publication in addition to the lab I'm already working in, and I've been offered a full time summer position with a research team here at my university.
However, the research is in marine biology which is VERY out of line with what I see myself doing. I think it would be really fun though as it involves travel and research diving in addition to benchwork. I also would work with the professor during the following semester to put together a poster presentation and/or publication based on my findings.
Is this applicable? I know the main thing is being able to talk about my research knowledgeably and securing good recommendations, but I feel like it'd be a little weird to talk about how I worked with dolphins (totally unrelated to health at all)
