Howdy all,
I am currently looking to apply for a MD/MS or MD/MPH program. Do you all think that a Masters of Science in Microbial and Molecular Pathogenesis or a MPH in Environmental Health would be more applicable to a career in medicine? I am hoping to either specialize in Infectious Diseases or Emergency Medicine (still have a couple of years to decide) but would like a masters nonetheless because I hope to pursue a career in academic medicine. I'd like to practice in a clinical setting mainly but would also like to teach/research a bit on the side. Thoughts?
Thanks!
