I am a second year medical student at a mid-upper tier medical school. I just met with one of our old timers; a cardiologist and he really stressed to me the importance of doing some research and publishing.
During the two years before medical school I did full time research and published a number of articles including two first author and bunch of other lower author papers. Some of these lower author papers were in very very good journals (NEJM...)
Are there any opinions on when to do research, what kind of research to do, who to do it with and how to get involved as a second year medical student?
Thanks for any input especially that relating to the importance of research for medical students going forward.
Thanks
