What is the best way to persue further studies in u.s.a in medical field esp. research options in neuroscience
It is very common for researchers from other countries, including India, to come to America to do postgraduate work. There are several in the lab next door to me! I'm sure with your medical background there would be lots of research opportunities for you.





As a starting point I would suggest finding labs that would interest you. One way that people outside the field do this is to find interesting articles and contact the professor. If they have an opening, you can send your resume and possibly set up an interview. They individual hospital or university would have more information about working there as a foreign citizen, etc. Good luck!
