I'm looking for information regarding job opportunities for someone with an MD/PhD that is interested in working more of a 40-50 hour week, making decent money (money isn't really a big issue). I realize this may limit the possibilities of doing competitive, academic research and/or having meaningful patient interaction.
What kind of careers are out there that utilize your MD/PhD that are not associated with the high-demand of academic research/dealing w/patients? I don' really like the idea of having to take my work home in order to stay competitive. I've heard of "industry," but I'm not really sure what that means.
Also, while I am not in love with the idea of medical research, I am committed to finishing my MD/PhD and do, in fact, quite enjoy the science.
Any info/ideas are appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
