Clinical trials of new drugs, some MD's even have their own labs but this probably more frequent in academic medicine.

Some examples?

All types. Depends on your willingness and training.

Everything from epidemiology and public health, to clinical trials (very frequent), to translational research, to basic research (not as frequent).

Generally, the vast majority of researchers are in academia.
