"Everything you wanted to know about applying to MD/PhD programs.” This will be a panel featuring current Perelman MD/PhD candidates and Skip Brass, Director of Perelman's MD/PhD Program Program.

"Since it was founded in 1958, the mission of Penn's MSTP program (https://www.med.upenn.edu/mstp/) is to prepare our students for careers as physician-investigators engaged in basic, disease-oriented and translational biomedical research designed to discover new knowledge and apply it for the betterment of humanity. We've accomplished that goal through the development of a well-integrated training program that combines the best medical training with outstanding graduate training leading to PhDs in traditional areas of biomedical laboratory research as well as in biomedical engineering, health care economics, anthropology, and history of science. Rather than producing confused graduates with two degrees and conflicting career options, our goal is to help our students fuse the different parts of their training together in ways that will bring a physician's perspective to the choices that they make as investigators."
