2004 Major: Mathematics and Chemistry; M.D. 2008
"I initially planned to go into biochemistry and having a strong math/physics background would have been helpful. I pivoted my junior year to medicine and am now an NIH funded clinician researcher in Emergency Medicine. More practical training in analytic software such as STATA or R and statistics would have been very helpful."
"For students in mathematics know that you can pick electives and adjust your training to help in a multitude of careers. I felt like phd was the only option at the time, but hopefully now things are very different."
