I have been doing research for close to 10yrs, been here, been there, some micro work, some immuno work, some electro phys, anatomy, surgical, all typically in conjunction with genetic studies and some stand alone genetic studies of one type or another.

Tip I give for people looking to go down the path of research, Science/biological research is a funny thing, often nothing like you imagined especially when you are going through school. Do the real homework, get out in the real world and see what real researchers do at every level from tech through assistant, associate, scientist and various levels of a Ph D. then make the decisions if it is what you want to do and if so how far you want to go.

If it is still what you want to do.... go where the grant money is and be prepared to alter and adapt to where it goes.
