Whilst students are often in want of a mentor, the basics of how to approach research opportunities and how to use them are often unclear. This book sets forth to answer the key questions those starting on an academic path may have, and is written in an easy-to-follow, accurate, and thorough way from start to end. It is, most of all, tremendously practical and useful, for example giving excellent tips and examples of how to approach supervisors, what to discuss in the initial meeting, and ways to find funding options. This book is very highly recommended to all medical students and doctors whether they are doing or supervising teaching, audits, or clinical research.--John Park, Editor-in-Chief, Res Medica, Journal of the Royal Society of Medicine
