First of all, if this has been asked before, I apologize!
I plan on pursuing research (most likely clinical) in medical school, whether that be a few months or an entire additional year. I've noticed that big research schools boast the amount of research $$$ they receive (e.g. Duke, Pitt).
As a hopeful MD (not MD/PhD) who wants to pursue research in medical school, is this something I should seriously consider in choosing the right school for me? Do MD students doing research benefit significantly from this funding, or does it primarily get "used up" by faculty and PhD or MD/PhD students?
