As a clinical, academic and research institution, Stony Brook University Hospital has provided groundbreaking research in many areas of healthcare, including research on Lyme's disease and creating new drugs to help cure sickness. For this question, don't worry if you have direct experience in working on research projects. If you do, that is great and be sure to elaborate on your experience. If you don't, there is no need to fret. Either way, be sure to talk about the importance of medical research in helping further better patient care and outcomes and show a willingness to participate in whatever way possible for the role you are interviewing for.

"While I haven't had a chance to partake in any research projects in my young career as a Nurse Practitioner, I've certainly personally witnessed the effects that research has had on the healthcare field. In upstate New York, I work with some patients that are suffering from Lyme's disease and I was so grateful to see the work that this institution has done to further research with the disease. I would love to be involved in future research in any primary care aspect as my patients would be able to someday reap the benefits of that research."
