Okay, so it doesn't pay, and I don't have an office with a window (ahem, Mikey!), and I'm pretty much the office bitch, but still it's a job. With any luck, I'll be able to crank out 3-4 papers this summer: (it's clinical research, with pre-op and post-op data, so things move faster) possibly some review articles (it's just a giant book report, except you use Medline instead of the local library), and/or some interesting surveys (again, highschool stuff).
The beauty of this is that my boss is an MD, who is on the residency committee, and understands exactly what a first year medical student like me needs: papers, papers, and more papers. He's not any random Ph.D who has all the time in the world to ponder the big questions and drag on the quest for truth; no, he's a "get the most bang for your buck" kinda guy. Me likey!
I just have to learn everything about the cornea now. Dry eyes anyone?
