Hey everyone. As the title suggests, I have recently received a unique opportunity to participate in summer research at any reputable institution within the United States and it's territories. While I initially believed this to be an easy choice to make, I am beginning to find it difficult to decide on where to go.
While I would like to keep the exact specifics of the program unknown, I can share that the research would be within the field of biomedical research. I realize that this is an incredibly broad field and that one person's experience somewhere could be radically different from another's who went to the same school. The reason I am posting this is to attempt to receive as much advice and feedback as possible about selecting the best program for me. I am lucky in that I truly enjoy almost every aspect of biology and the biomedical field, and while I am very interested in stem cell research, I would be equally happy working on something else.
Additionally, feel free to PM me with personal experiences you may have at the top universities. I would like to hear the bad, good, and in between. Thanks in advance!
