A long time ago, I pondered whether or not to try for a social science PhD, but I never got around to it. My field research took me abroad, and then into health care, specifically, starting and running free clinics in the U.S. and abroad. My work at those clinics convinced me to consider a medical degree, but I still wanted to do the PhD so I could teach and do research as well.
So now many years later, I'd like to pursue both. Because of my advanced age and science GPA, I won't get into any MSTP programs, but that's fine with me. Does anyone know where I can find lists of MD programs that allow their students to pursue PhDs in the social sciences and humanities simultaneously. An alternative is to do them sequentially, and I may do this instead, but doing them simultaneously would allow me to integrate the two fields and save time.
