狗了一下,美国大约有122 MDPHD programs, 其中只有50个是NIH给钱,其它都是学校自费设立的,印象里
这些学校自费设立的MDPHD,需要通过某种国家级评估质量审核后才有可能拿到NIH资助,通常都是排名很高的医学院才能得到NIH资助,很多排名靠后的学校都希望设立MDPHD program因为这会影响到学校学术声誉和将来申请科研经费的渠道和多少。听说,有些被取消的MDPHD是因为没有通过审核评估,也就是学校毕业的MDPHD质量不高,并非都是经费问题。NIH每年大约资助600-700名MDPHD学生,占每年新招医学生的3%左右。
In the United States, there are roughly 122 MD-PhD programs affiliated with medical schools, and approximately 50 of them are funded by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) through the Medical Scientist Training Program (MSTP).
Annual Matriculants: Around 600 students enter MD-PhD programs each year.
- Percentage of Medical School Matriculants: This represents about 3% of all students who start medical school.
- PhD Focus: PhD training for MD-PhD students is typically in biomedical sciences, but can also be in fields outside of the classical biomedical sciences.
- Examples of PhD Fields: These include bioengineering, chemical biology, bioinformatics, public health, anthropology, and bioethics.
- Acceptance Rate: About 10% of MD-PhD applicants get in, due to a smaller applicant pool.
