My school has set up a program within the materials science & engineering department for honors freshman engineering students to find a place in one of their labs. I've met with two professors whose research sounded fairly interesting and now I've got to choose which one to start in next semester. On the one hand is a lab doing research relevant to my electrical and computer engineering major with 2 dimensional materials, and on the other is a lab doing research with nanomaterials, with direct medical applications. I'm far more interested in the nanoparticle research, but the other professor's lab creates far more publications (8-15 per year) than the other (2-4 per year).
Is there a reasonable likelihood that I could be listed as an author on a paper as a freshman and have it make a difference re: med school?
