Do i add this research and development experince in the ERAS as research or not?? I know medicine research is different but the analytical tools are the same. Pls help guys

thanks and wish you guys all the LUCK!

I'd say add it. Research is research.

yeh it was a research and development job, where i experimented with lots of different metals to make silicon crystals more conductive. I did lots of graphing of the results using statistical process control methods and kept the lab jornal and computer updated on all experiments. I was doing all this stuff with three PhD's.

😳 i don't know what to do?? any thoughts on the matter? thanks guys

Did it result in any publications? If so, for sure include the titles of the journal articles and/or abstracts in the research section. If during the course of your work there was no intent to publish a new scientific finding, it would be better to describe it in detail in your work history (and emphasize the scientific nature of the work) rather than in the research section.

I agree with Weil-Felix. Probably better in the work section unless you actually got publications and can sell it real well. Otherwise, it looks like app. inflating. It is still valuable to report as work experience.

Thanks alot guys, i guess i will put it in the research work experince. The work we did, we didn't publish anything it was all for the companies future products, as you the nature of the business with so much competition at stake. The company is looking after themselves rather getting the names in for one of their PhD's. Eventhough we made few very good discoveries, but never published anything but did patent few stuff. I guess i will put it in as an experince, they can always verify that i was part of the R&D team if any questions my arise?

thankyou once again for you help, may God bless you
