“I would say that the Research Update organization is doing an outstanding job in inspiring medical students/residents to get involved in research. I believe that most human beings are curious by nature, and participating in research should be a naturally rewarding experience. However, there are many roadblocks to getting the essential skills required to be a successful researcher. Research Update shines in this area, where they train you in the essentials of all the research skills you would need to be a successful published author in as little as six months by providing very focused training. I would highly recommend this training to all prospective candidates who aspire to be the best future physicians.”

Jigisha Rakholia, MD
“I am an IMG from India with low scores. By being a part of the Research Update team, I was able to work on one of the modifiable sections of my CV, i.e., research experience and publications. It helped me to build a stronger application for my second cycle, and I matched successfully. Also, Urvish guides you on how to prepare for the research-related questions asked in the interview. The team was always updated about the upcoming conferences where we can submit our work. It encouraged me to present my first poster at the AAPI conference. So, I recommend applicants to join this team if they want to learn and explore clinical research.”
