There are benefits to doing research in industry and academia like you have mentioned before. Everyone does like to see immediate results, that is what makes us human. But working on something for the long run is more beneficial because we are helping the future and our kids and grandkids will benefit from us. We may not get the recognition we want, but we will be appreciated. We are all studying biomedical engineering. If you go into the true research of it like tissue engineering, it will be something that keeps evolving. You will not be able to see immediate results. I believe we need to have the patience.
