So you want to be a medical scientist. An MD isn’t enough to make your parents proud, so why not toss in a PhD as well? With your MD/PhD, you’ll be making groundbreaking medical discoveries each day you go to work. Well, not quite. This is the reality of being a medical scientist.

Welcome to our next installment in So You Want to Be where we highlight a specific medical career path to help you decide if it’s right for you.

Medical scientists conduct research that enhances our understanding of human health and diseases. They explore the causes and progressions of various health conditions, aiming to develop effective treatments and preventive measures.
