[QUOTE="DW, post: 431919, member: 13938"] glad to see someone likes it. most PHS docs are highly encouraged to do some clinical practice part-time, so many of CDC docs stationed in atlanta work a day or two a week at egleston-scottish rite, grady, or the other big hospitals in the area. but it is mostly lab-based, epi/statistics, or policy work. some examples: my boss has been working on a study of immune correlates of bloodstream infections in developing countries for 12 years now. she's had several ~4 month trips to developing nations (malawi, thailand, mozambique), very interesting stuff. my professor from grad school works in global disater management. basically, whenever there is a major earthquake/flood/etc, they send his team over and they do risk assessment and provide care to victims, and do retrospective studies to determine the medical impact of these events. coolest job ever. i have a friend who is a lab tech, and his job, no lie, is to make synthetic urine. why, i think its for testing some kidney infection or something, i dont really understand, but he spends mots of his day making piss. worst job........ever!!!! injury prevention, substance abuse, bioterrorism preparedness, maternal and child health, healthcare disparities, nosocomial infections, and a variety of other health concerns are all addressed in some measure. if you can handle the gridlock and paperwork (it IS a federal agency, ugh), its pretty interesting. the web site is a great resource [/QUOTE]
