Just wondering if anyone out there has done any interesting research during a summer or school year.
I've done "basic science" research on molecules and proteins but find it EXTREMELY boring.. so my definition of interesting is excluding it.. I think I'm gearing towards clinical type research but am brainstorming different areas that I could explore..

What I'm trying to find is ideas of research people have done that might be something like..
Brain Feedback- focusing on people being able to control their heart rate with their mind by watching it in real-time.. or being able to move robotic body parts with their mind..

Use of technology.. Google Maps Mashup creating radius plot of fatal heart attack victims in promixity of hospital (actually.. time would be a better corelation than distance but you get the point..)

Basically, I love technology.. I'm great at computers.. so I want to mix the medical research in with my other passions..

I'm sure there's gotta be one research area that someone else has dabbled in that might interest me.. RFID?? etc..

fMRI stuff is very techie. Depending on what software your lab uses, you'll be doing unix scripting, matlab stuff, etc.

Does your school have a BME department? They have fun toys too.
