M.D/Ph.D. Program

Program Description

The Interdisciplinary MD/Ph.D. program is designed as a seven-year integrated experience. The first two years consist primarily of pre-clinical medical school courses. Laboratory rotations are performed in the summer prior to entering medical school or following the first year. Years 3-5 generally involve full-time research towards the Ph.D. degree in a laboratory of your choice. The final two years of the program focus on clinical experience. Coordination between the clinical and research years is designed to facilitate a smooth transition between aspects of the Program. A dedicated MD/Ph.D. Journal club meets regularly to further enrich the experience of students in the Program.
