I am new to this topic.
I did not even know DO/PhD programs exhisted, im a MSc (2) student in mol bio, and am possibly interested in programs like this could anyone shed some light on this topic for me. Are they competative, moreso then MD/PHD, what kind of scores are needed.

is it worth it or would just a medical degree alone be just as affective

Do a search on SDN... this has been talked about. Plus there are lists of DO schools offering joint degree DO/PhD.
