医学博士/博士 该计划旨在培训医师科学家从事将基础科学和临床科学联系起来的职业。医师科学家将把实验室发现转化为更好的患者预后。该计划开始于医学院第一年的两个月。这些学生到达校园进行定向并在医学院课程开始之前完成了两个实验室轮换。他们完成了医学院的临床前阶段,并在参加了美国国家医学许可考试的第一部分后,以研究生身份进入博士学位授予部门或课程。研究生水平的课程工作,考试和研究将由论文顾问和论文委员会指导,并由MD / Ph.D成员监督。指导委员会。此阶段的主要任务是实验室研究,从而获得博士学位。论文。完成博士
The M.D./Ph.D. program seeks to train physician-scientists for careers that bridge basic and clinical science. Physician-scientists will translate laboratory discoveries into better patient outcomes. The program begins two months prior to the first year of medical school. These students arrive on campus for orientation and complete two laboratory rotations before the start of medical school classes. They complete the pre-clinical phase of medical school and, after taking the first part of the U.S. National Medical Licensing Examination, enter a Ph.D.-granting department or program as a graduate student. Graduate-level course work, examinations and research will be guided by the dissertation adviser and the dissertation committee, with oversight by members of the M.D./Ph.D. steering committee. The main undertaking at this phase is laboratory research that leads to the Ph.D. dissertation. After completion of doctoral degree requirements, students move to the clinical year of medical school. Students may begin the clinical year of medical school immediately after completion of doctoral degree requirements, regardless of the time in the calendar year, and, 14 to 16 months later, may complete their medical school requirements. These students are exempt from the major part of the fourth year of medical school.
