This blog originated while I was applying to MD/PhD programs in the summer of 2012. As I was trying to learn more about these programs and what it was like to be a physician-scientist in training, I found that there was a lack of personal accounts of this type of training. Wanting to help those who come after me and wanting to maintain a writing outlet during my training, I created this blog to share both the ups and downs of my experience. It is not exhaustive by any means, but I hope it can be helpful for you in whatever stage of training!
