but I guess you’re saying since it wasn’t specifically CS research it won’t matter

No, I didn’t say that. Even if it’s not CS research it will still help you. The main point schools looks for is “research potential”, which is very similar across disciplines. Just make sure you have recommendations that back up your research experience.
