Hi everyone,
I am re-posting this on the Radiology forum as advised from the general allopathic forum.
After searching the forums, I could not find any recent threads addressing my specific question.
I am interested in radiology and also working in academics/ research in my career. If I take a year off between MS3 and 4, what do you all think will be more beneficial to help reach these career goals?
-Spend a year of doing research. Trying, hopefully, for publications and spending time in the radiology department. Hopefully I can get funding and not be in additional debt for this year.
-Spend a year getting an MPH (focus on quantitative methods/ biostats) at a top 5 MPH program. This will cost like 70k with living expenses ect.
Thanks and please let me know about your personal experiences if you pursued either of the above options yourself.
