Hello,
I feel like I may have seen this topic around, but I didn't know what to search for based on the title of this thread.
I am thinking about MD/PhD, but after talking with some PIs of labs, it seems like most of them do more funding/grant-writing work than actual lab/bench research. At this point, I really don't see myself in a career of trying to find funding/grant-writing. I'd much rather do bench work.
Should I still go for MD/PhD? Is it necessary?
I imagine to be doing bench work, I would at least need to be a post-doc.
If there are other threads like this that you know of, I would appreciate a link to those as well.
Thanks for your help.
