Why do research?
Participating in research is a great way to get the opportunity to work with faculty and possibly foster a life-long relationship with a mentor.
The "bench to bedside" approach that is driving modern biomedicine suggests that research will have an even larger impact on medical practice in the future.
Research training gives you a favorable advantage when applying for residency positions.
Research training will make you a better physician with a sharper mind and stronger critical thinking skills.
