Is it bad if my research experience doesn’t not focus on a particular area/field?
Post Body

I’m currently a junior biochemistry/molecular biology major and a minor in data science. Right now, I’ve had a substantial amount of research experience (should be ~2000 hours by graduation). I’ve been working in a molecular biology/biochemistry lab at my school (small liberal arts college) since summer of 2019 and I’m currently doing a thesis on an interdisciplinary project which is a collaboration between my current lab and a computational biology lab at my school. Last summer I worked part-time (because of COVID) at an immunology lab at a well-known research institute. This summer, I will work at an biomedical lab but with a focus on using AI/machine to develop diagnostic tools for cancer at the same institute. I also plan to take at least one gap year doing research before going to med school. Though my research experience is definitely diverse, I feel like it lacks a focal point which might hinder my application. Does anyone have any thought on my situation?
