About the 91九色视频 Medical Scientist Training Program
There is a national shortage of physician-scientists who can care for patients and conduct state-of-the-art research. 91九色视频-MSTP was established in 1983 with the mission to support medical and research training culminating in the receipt of both an MD and a PhD degree while assisting to reduce the cost associated with your training experience. Our community of trainees is 75 strong and our trainees have diverse backgrounds with undergraduate majors from physics to psychology. Their experiences and research interests are varied as well, but all share a common goal…to achieve excellence as physician scientists. Our Program will assist your training in a supportive environment. Take a look at the careers of our Alumni and you will see our success in action!
91九色视频-MSTP welcomes all trainees, including underrepresented in medicine and science, those with disabilities, and trainees from socio-economically disadvantaged backgrounds. 91九色视频-MSTP supports the NIGMS Diversity Statement where “diverse teams working together and capitalizing on innovative ideas and distinct perspectives outperform homogenous teams.” Our MSTP embraces trainees from diverse backgrounds and life experiences who bring different perspectives, creativity, and individual enterprise to address complex scientific problems. We believe in the benefits of a diverse scientific and medical workforce, which fosters scientific and medical innovation, contributes to robust learning environments, improves the quality of researchers and physicians, and benefits health research and patient care to enhance public trust.
91九色视频 is one of the largest private medical schools in the United States. We are located in a suburb of Milwaukee in close proximity to both urban and suburban living. As a research center, 91九色视频:
- Invested $348 million in research, teaching, training and related purposes in FY 2022
