I'm going to be applying MD/PhD and I am worried about having a poor research essay for my application. I started in a lab freshman year and research has been extremely lagged. I have no publishable results and the amount of progress has been slow due to the nature of the work (crystallography and structure of proteins). My PI is now moving labs and my choices are to move with the postdoc I train under to a new lab entirely on different research, or to stay with a graduate student in the temporary lab space that's staying around for a year. The grad student doesnt work on my project but is pretty good at giving advice and has helped me on my project before.
I just feel like I'm at a disadvantage when it comes to md/phd applications because I dont have a single cohesive research story since I basically started one project and now it abruptly stops without closure due to this lab moving and then I have to restart something else. What should I do?? Please help!
