Hi folks. I'll be an MS1 this fall and I was just accepted into a summer research program. I applied to the program in case I didn't get into med school, but now I'm considering going with it. I'm really excited about it because it's paid research in tissue engineering in a nice place near an old crush. On the other hand, I'll be far away from family and friends before starting medical school and aside from money, I'm not sure if it's worth it.
Is there any benefit in this for residency? I'm considering EM as a specialty so I don't know if tissue engineering is iimportant. Is it on the same level as research done in medical school? Any advice is appreciated.
