Question
"What are some of the advantages and disadvantages to research as a premedical activity? More specifically, is clinical/patient research 'better' than laboratory research with regards to acceptance into medical school? Also, how willing are MD's, who are conducting research at present, willing to take on an undergraduate or post-bac to participate in their research efforts? "
