Hello,
I am wondering if you can offer me any advice on the following:
I am a 29-year old woman who currently resides in Montana. I want to pursue a career in psychedelic psychiatry. As far as I know, the main program for this right now is The NYU Langone Psychedelic Medicine Research Training Program.
I have been preparing to apply to medical school for several years (intent on becoming a psychiatrist). I am planning to apply in the spring of 2023. The more I've been thinking about it, though, the more I wonder if I should apply to combined MD PhD programs, given my interest in the application of psychedelics for the treatment of mental health disorders and the field's relative youth/clinical acceptance history.
If this is truly the work I want to do, would I be better off going the MD route or the combined MD & PhD route, in your opinion?
Any advice you'd be willing to provide would be much appreciated.
Warmly,
Mackenzie
