Hey All,
PGY-2 here. I am at a university affiliated IM program with in-house Cards, IC, and EP fellowships. Our faculty are super busy, and other than a few of them, none are interested in scholarship. It is next to impossible to even get a meeting with most of these attendings because they are busy and/or don't participate in research. All our residents are capable of are case reports just in the off-chance you take care of said patient.
I am starting in our CCU this Monday and am hoping to find some opportunity for scholarship. Will let the attending know that this is one of my goals for the month. Otherwise, I have a few case reports pending, I just submitted an IRB proposal for a chart study, and I have my name on two JACC abstracts. I did win a reward for a Cardiology-related topic that I presented at a regional conference, but I think my scholarship is lacking.
I am just so frustrated. I came to this program because of the fellowships, but the opportunities for research is sparse. I do not care where I match especially as DO so I just need as much help as I can to boost my CV...
