Types of Medical Research and Careers

Medicine is an exciting, diverse and constantly evolving field and, thus, the types of research in this area follows suit. From clinical research into medicinal efficacy, to clinical trials using human subjects, to datasets and qualitative surveys, the world of medicine can be explored through many different approaches.

Similarly, the types of careers available within the medical field are also quite endless and varied: hands-on surgeons in the OR, business-minded healthcare administrators, public health researchers, professors of medicine, community health workers and epidemiologists–to name a few. 

The opportunities for medical research and career paths are truly unlimited. The common thread throughout most medical professions, however, is that the individuals who most thrive in them tend to be: hard-working, empathetic, patient, curious, flexible, detail-oriented and great at communicating.

How to Get into Medicine

Take time to learn about different areas of medicine to see which topics and aspects you’re gravitating toward right now. Science and math courses at your high school will provide the best foundational knowledge for college- and grad-level medical studies. There is also a vast array of books on specific medical topics, case studies and narrative perspectives.

Taking advantage of resources available to you now and participating in extracurricular activities can expand your knowledge and help you discover medical niches and research areas that spark excitement for you.

1. Take a Class in High School

Science and math courses tend to be the most applicable when preparing for a medical path. The availability of classes varies greatly from school to school, but most high schools offer many of the courses listed below. You can also look for them at your local community college or an accredited online institution.

Natural Sciences:

  • Anatomy

  • Biology

  • Chemistry

  • Organic Chemistry

  • Physiology

Social Sciences:

  • Anthropology

  • Communications

  • Public Health

  • Psychology

  • Sociology

Mathematics:

  • Algebra

  • Physics

  • Calculus

  • Statistics

It’s important to note that in life and work, it’s an advantage to be well-rounded and it can open up more opportunities for you. Be thoughtful about the humanities courses you select, too. They might feel extraneous to your medical aspirations, but they could actually end up being extremely relevant.

Speaking multiple languages would be a huge benefit, for example, if you want to serve immigrant populations or individuals in international crisis areas (e.g., Doctors Without Borders). A good understanding of writing structure can help you communicate your theories and discoveries more effectively in a medical journal. If you love the arts, it might inspire a medical research project.

2. Read a Book

There are many acclaimed books on various facets of the medical industry, from instructional books to historical narratives, to social and ethical questions and firsthand accounts. Below are some of the classics.

History, Commentary and Accounts from the Field

Medical Project Ideas and How to Brainstorm Your Own

There are many different forms of research and ways to pursue your project. Experiments on animals or volunteer human subjects help medical researchers determine causation through comparing the effects on treatment groups and control groups. Survey-based research involves analyzing participants’ responses to questions, such as through express interviews, written responses or numerical information. A literature review is a written summary of key works that have already been conducted about a medical topic over several years. Other projects involve analyzing large amounts of data in spreadsheets using statistical analysis. 

Polygence Scholars Are Also Passionate About

You can brainstorm your own project ideas and pull from these idea generation techniques to come up with your own idea based on a medical or health concept that intrigues you. If you have an area in mind that you would like to explore, consider which form(s) of research might be best to elicit the type of information you are seeking. 

If you could use some inspiration, below are 10 medical research project ideas from our mentors to help kickstart the process.

The Use of Virtual and Augmented Reality in Medicine

Level: Beginner

Idea by: Medical research mentor Mina

Virtual realities are becoming the norm around households and even classrooms these days! Did you know that virtual and augmented realities are also starting to be incorporated within the world of medicine? Take a deeper dive into this topic and write a research paper on your findings!

High School Health Independence

Level: Beginner

Sometimes, it’s hard for teens to pinpoint a medical problem that they might be facing. How can we better educate high schoolers on the ins and outs of self care and living a healthy life? Brainstorm ways to introduce positive lifestyle mechanisms to this specific age group.

How Does Aristotle Inform Decision-Making at the End of Life in the U.S. Healthcare System?

Level: Beginner

Idea by: Medical research mentor Avery

Sometimes, medical decisions can interfere with what you believe is ethically correct. To help with this, clinicians should have some sort of guide to help them through decision making processes. For this project, you will grasp a better understanding of Aristotle’s principles, ethics, and more to assist with medical decision making

What can Songbirds Teach Us about Premature Infants?

Level: Intermediate

Idea by: Medical research mentor Naomi

Due to the advancement of medicine, more premature babies are given a chance at life than ever before. However, some of these babies unfortunately grow to develop some sort of mental impairment which points back to their time spent in the NICU. Is the sensory overload found within the rooms of the NICU altering brain development?

Under the Dermatoscope: A Fact Check of Common Skin Care and Sun Protection Advice

Level: Intermediate

Idea by: Medical research mentor Austin

If you find yourself buying lotions and serums to protect your skin from the sun, this could be the project for you! Do your research on all things dermatology! What really causes skin damage and how do you know you’re using the correct ointments? Create a blog or podcast on skin health. 

Development of New Cancer Treatment with Targeted Medicine

Level: Advanced

Idea by: Medical research mentor Clayton

Explore the world of medicine by helping treat a cancer type of your choice! For this project you will invent a drug by learning more about cancerous cellular markers. You will focus on targeting those specific markers with the drug that you develop. Write a research paper or create a poster presentation to explain your creation. 

How Will Personalized Medicine Affect the Costs of Medical Care?

Level: Advanced

Idea by: Medical research mentor Alejandro

You went to the doctor and used your insurance, yet you still received a large bill in the mail. Then you have to go back to the doctor because the treatment given to you didn't work. It’s time to incorporate personalized medicine into our healthcare system. Do your research to gain an understanding on why this has yet to happen and what we should do to get there.

Tranexamic Acid as a Treatment for Drug-Induced Angioedema

Level: Advanced

Idea by: Medical research mentor Gaurav

Unfortunately, we probably all know someone with high blood pressure as it’s one of the most common diagnoses in the U.S. Even though there are plenty of medications that help control the spike in blood pressure, many of them have awful side effects. One of the most common side effects, angioedema, can be very dangerous if left untreated. Do your research to develop a treatment plan for these patients.

How to Conduct Medical Research

Primary Research

If you will be conducting primary research and/or experiments, you’ll need to figure out how you’re going to set up your experiment and what data types you’re going to collect. There are two main types of data collection: quantitative data and qualitative data

Quantitative focuses on numerical data, which allows researchers to analyze large amounts of data quickly by conducting statistical analyses. This type of data-collection can be conducted at home and does not require a wet lab. 

Qualitative focuses on rich, word-based information, such as anecdotal accounts people give through open-ended response questions or interviews (conducted in person or virtually). Qualitative data provides emotional nuances and depths that cannot be captured through numbers. Surveys and questionnaires can be distributed online and can gather both quantitative and qualitative data.

Secondary Research

If running your own experiment proves too complicated or beyond your financial means (research subjects often expect to be compensated), you may want to conduct secondary research. You can analyze free, publicly available datasets and journals about your topic, such as through NIH’s Scientific Data Sharing and National Library of Medicine hubs. Just make sure that the dataset you use comes from a trusted source. If you are reading articles to support your thesis, you should skim their introduction and conclusion first to make sure they’re worth reading all the way through.

Another form of secondary research is writing a literature review (or “lit review”) summarizing key works that have been published over the years by others about a medical or health topic you want to explore. The review paper might describe how different studies relate to each other and how the field has developed over time. With a simple internet connection, you can use tools like Google Scholar to start reading scholarly articles and writing your own review paper right away.

A note on ethics: As you conduct your research it is absolutely crucial that you follow ethical practices, including minimizing risk, getting informed consent and ensuring scientific validity. Also, throughout the research and paper-writing process, keep track in real time of each source you reference, so you can give due credit to the creators and easily cite them in your bibliography without scrambling to find them again.

Writing a Medical Research Paper

There are several essential components to writing an effective and sound research paper. Here’s a great general article on how to write a good research paper and below we break down the critical elements for every research paper with accompanying links that expand upon each element.

  • Write an abstract

    • The abstract encapsulates the essence of your research paper. It is a standalone summary that gives a quick snapshot of your study’s problem, methodology, findings and conclusion. It provides a reader with the critical aspects of your research before they decide if they wish to read the comprehensive paper.

  • Create an outline for your research paper 

    • Research papers often include the following sections: Introduction, Materials, Methods, Data, Discussion and Conclusion

    • The Introduction will present the problem you’re trying to solve, any existing research and an overview of your research. Write this after you’ve finished conducting all of your experiments and/or research.

  • Develop your thesis statement

    • This is the why. Why are you conduct this research? What is the argument or theory you are posing? You can always come up with a preliminary or working thesis and then refine it or completely revise it as you learn more through the research process. By the time you begin writing your research paper, however, it’s important to have a strong sense of your thesis statement to ensure your paper is clear and focused.

  • Cite your work

    • Every research paper must have a bibliography at the end with proper citations giving credit to the original authors of the resources and data you reference. 

To get a sense of the length and organization of a student medical research paper, check out Polygence student Alexandra’s paper, Mechanisms Behind Hypoxia-Driven Resistance to Immunotherapy in the Tumor Microenvironment, published in the Journal of Student Research and Navenka’s paper, The Impact of Cannabis on Academic Achievement: Brain Development, Cognitive Functioning, and Mental Health” published in the International Youth Neuroscience Association Journal. 

For more insights, see Polygence’s library of resources on How to Conduct and Showcase Research.

Medical Journals

Once you’ve researched, written, and revised your research paper, it’s time to introduce it to the world. You could enter it into a competition, as mentioned earlier in this post, launch a podcast, create a YouTube video about it and/or publish it in a journal. 

Publishing your research in a journal can take the great work you’ve already done and add credibility to it. It also makes a stronger impression than unpublished research. For peer-reviewed journals, the process of having your work reviewed by advanced degree researchers can be a valuable experience in itself. You can receive feedback from experts and learn how to improve upon the work you’ve already done. 

Below are some excellent publications that accept medical and science research submissions from high school students.
