daaaaamn... DrCito is right... God Damn... even if I wanted I couldn't be so disastrous in writing

Well, you said it right. Research is important if you want to land in a good univ program. Not so much if your goal is private practice. The choice is yours.

PS: The Guys were right... English isn't a phonetic language... it has special rules for pronunciation and it is very difficult to desipher if you turn your own pronunciation directly into writing...

The question is NOT so much what is relevant/ hot in research in the USA but more like what it is that INTERESTS YOU. Research is not a joke... or if you think it is, you probably should not be doing it...

Anyways, my point is you should do research in the field that YOU ARE INTERESTED IN! Do you want to be a neurosurgeon? Do brain tumors or vascular stuff... want to a be IM and interested in infectios diseases? Do AIDS! It's really your decision. In the USA you can find groups studying virtually anything... Find out what you like FIRST then you 'll be able to find a group doing research on that... That is easy.

I am getting the feeling that your problem is that you might be unsure about the career path you want to choose. This is a tough point in everybody's life... We all have been there...at this junction there's no one else that can help you but yourself!

Good Luck,

Mufurc

'l keep wat u told in mind next yr(dats wen i'l start it)..
