I'm doing year out research between my 3rd/4th year of medical school and recently had a review accepted for publication. I'm first author, followed by my research preceptor, however when we submitted the manuscript my affiliation was listed as his - the department of medicine from our institution. I don't know if this is technically correct since I'm associated with the medical school. I don't have an MD after my name so wouldn't it be odd to be first author without distinction of status (med student). I'd appreciate input so I can make changes if necessary.
