Hello, I'm curious about how research is carried out in medical school and how helpful it is to apply to a residency program. To be honest I am not thrilled with the prospect of research on top of medical school classes, but I'd at least like to know how people pull it off.
I read that supposedly successful Derm applicants have around 20 publications, and I wonder how that is even possible since some labs may not even produce one. I didn't do any in undergrad and I probably will not be going into Derm, but that's just the most extreme example off the top of my head.
I've heard it is easier to get published in clinical research, so I'm presuming students just join an existing project?
