Will lack of research hinder me in attaining a decent radiology residency?

By

I'm a 3rd year medical student interested in radiology. I'm hoping to match at a decent program in a major city, preferably in the midwest.

Things I have going against me: DO student, zero research or ECs of any kind.

Things I have going for me: 250 step 1, top quartile of class in preclinical years, all honors in 3rd year so far, ~8 years of work experience prior to med school (if that counts for much).

I am trying, and failing, to get any kind of research going. I just don't have any connections, none of my rotations are at academic places where I can meet people, and my cold emailing has netted me precisely zero leads. At this point, I do not expect to have found and done any sort of meaningful research prior to applications this year.

Will this greatly hinder me in attaining a residency at a decent program? I care less about prestige and more about quality training in a bigger city (wife/kids that I don't want to limit in a small town). Are there other things I should be doing now to try and bolster my application? Thanks for any thoughts and suggestions

Onetonline salary search change?

By
Did this change? I am having a hard time finding the same lists I saw 2 months ago. https://www.onetonline.org/link/summary/29-2034.00#AdditionalInformation https://www.onetonline.org/link/localwages/29-2034.00?st=OR&p=hourly I used to be able to see wage by area and sort it by state and see the differences per state and per city in every state. I can't seem to find this same list anymore. I can see a bell curve but I can't sort by state or wage or anything.

Radiology program

By
I’m from New York looking to attend a Rad tech program. I work for Northwell and recently came across a flyer for John Patrick University. it is an online AS program with clinicals in person (which my job will allow me to do) It seems as if this program is not accredited by JCERT but the school is accredited by ACCSC. I reached out to the director of the school and also the arrt and they say that there would be no issue taking boards. I haven’t really heard of anyone going through online program so I wanted to make sure everything checks out. Since this was being advertised at work I couldn’t see why they would put something that wouldn’t be accepted out.
