hello i have a question
i'm not certain on this, but i'm pretty sure MD/PhD programs that are funded by NIH through T32 or a similar mechanism are residence independent (they dont take residence into account as long as you pass the MD portion of the process). is that true for dual degree DDS/PhD programs funded by NIH as well?
i'm a pre-dent, but it doesnt seem like there's much interest in going into research with a DDS. the problem with this is that most (or maybe all) of the NIH funded schools are big state schools which sadly accept few out-of-staters. i think for med school it's a bit different because NIH funds all types of public and private schools, whereas only a small fraction of dental schools are funded (and for 1 or 2 seats at that). anybody know anything about this? i dont know who to ask and the other forum with md/phd people will probably know nothing about dentistry.
i'll probably end up calling the schools to be safe but any info u guys might have would be nice. i searched the forums only to find like 5-7 year old posts...haha. seriously nobody wants to do dds/phd??
