I have been lucky enough to have been accepted to two different summer research programs, but I cannot decide which one would be better for me. I am almost equally interested in each of the topics:
1) Cancer and cell proliferation
2) Molecular Biology (not exactly sure on topic)
I am leaning toward #1 interest-wise. But, topics aside:
#1:
-Research done in pharmacological department of medical school
-Pays a little better
-Research with MD/PhD who has 25+ publications with in last 3 years on the topic
-Weekly seminars on topics in biomedicine
-Poster presentation
-Housing with medical students in medical frat house
-Funded by ASPET (American Society for Pharmacology and Experimental Therapeutics)
#2:
-Research with PhD that does not have as many publications (10-15)
-Ethics Retreat
-Listen in on State Poison Phone line
-Job shadow doctors (may be available for #1, but #2 specifically said this)
-hiking
-funded by NSF
You see it is a toss up. If you were me, what would you do?
