Why MD/PhD? Here is my breakdown of why MD PhD and why I believe the MD/PhD route is advantageous over doing MD-only or PhD-only if you want to become a physician-scientist.
For those who are watching for the first time, I am a 3rd year MD/PhD student at the MSTP program at the University of Maryland.
Also I apologize for the audio. I had a lavalier microphone but it did not record correctly, so I was forced to use the audio from my camera.
I elaborate more on this topic (why md/phd vs md only or phd only) and other topics on my website:
