Hey all,
I know this has been discussed in the past, but I am going to bring it up anyway . I am from a smaller ophtho program that is not in the top 20 in terms of NIH funding. I have a decent resume, but being from a smaller program, I feel like I would benefit from a year of research.
I have a couple ideas. 1. Try to work at the NIH for a year. 2. Work with a big name researcher. As for the latter, how does one get funding for such things? I know about the HHMI but it seems like it may be impossibly hard to get. Anyone get direct funding from any labs? If so, please PM me.
