Hello everyone,
Firstly thanks, as everyone on this forum is so helpful. I wanted to reach out and see if anyone had ideas for research years between M3 and M4? I have looked into a few things already and found only 2 official derm fellowships that I could apply to so I applied to those. Most of them seem to require an MD.
Does anyone else have any ideas how to get a research year? Do I cold email people? If so, how do I figure out who are good PIs to email? Do I attach a cover letter/CV? I have asked the department at my school for help and no luck. They are incredibly small and do not do any research so I am at a loss.
I have 5 months till 3rd year ends and I'd love to land a derm fellowship as my clinical grades are unfortunately a little low and I am pretty sure if I go straight into 4th year I have a less than 50% chance of matching. I was hoping people here might have some ideas. Ive browsed through old posts and most seem to be geared towards finding a fellowship after having not matched.
Thanks
