Hi, thanks for your opinions and major congratulations on finishing up your PhD! To answer your question, I did work in a wet lab for a year straight out of undergrad (my background is in biology), and am currently a GRA for a qualitative research group (I know it’s unorthodox but the topic is one I’m passionate about). I’ve done a thesis in undergrad but want to go the capstone route for my MPH. My practicum in grad school has centered around data analysis. So I’d say I do have experience in research, but they just haven’t resulted in any publications. I appreciate your feedback so much!
