Hey WBC,
I have found your posts to be quite helpful, and you seem to be in a perfect position to possibly answer a few questions I have. I will be starting at MCW next fall, and I am currently (I know, it'll all probably change) planning on going into radiology. I have a few questions about MCW, research opportunities, dual degrees, and the quest for radiology in general.
-I have done some good research in Nuclear Medicine at the Mayo Clinic, and have 5 publications so far. Does stuff like this (summer undergrad research) help out when trying to match?
-Would having a master's degree in a biomedical science (neuroscience, functional imaging, anatomy, etc.) help when trying to match?
-How are such grad programs at MCW? I am looking at getting a master's in addition to my MD, mostly to get some good research done. Does MCW have any programs that would be relevant to radiology?
-If not a dual degree, I'd definitely like to do some radiology research. I am thinking in particular about the summer research fellowships after first year. Are there radiology opportunities there?
I know that's a lot to chew on, but I'd really appreciate any feedback you could give. Thanks a lot.
btw, i'm currently at UW. congrats on your match here. you're gonna love Madison!
