I have a few questions about PT fields outside of literal clinic work.

1) What degrees on top of DPT would be necessary to transition into a research position? MSCR? Ph.D.?
2) Is it possible to both practice in a clinic and do research at the same time?
3) How does the salary compare of a pure research PT to a practicing PT?
4) Job outlook?
