I want to be a physician-scientist when I grow up :) specialising is neuroscience. I always come to this talk to remind me of my purpose :) Wish me luck, and I wish luck to everyone who wants to pursue this same career!
my dream is to become a physician scientist because at my early age i was exposed to things that the biochemistry of life has a lot of questions that never been solved until now and i'm currently a first year medical student trying hard to have good grades to be accepted in PhD program in the future. im not a smart student but at least i am trying hard.
This talk is a keeper to help raise awareness. I had a type A dissection July 2013. I had genetic testing with Dr Pyeritz of U Penn, and although inclusive, it seemed clear to Dr Pyeritz that there was a genetic component. When my brother dissected in December, 2015, I contacted the Ritter Foundation, and we both have been tested. I hope that will add to the pool of knowledge to prevent more untimely deaths.
Excellent speach. Thank you for all you do for all with this deadly disease, and for all those who still are not acute ill. Hugs and love from Sweden. (Timo, acute AD type I oct 2012)
One thing I can say as a clinical researcher. Low pay compared to practitioners. That's why most MDs choose to practice than pursue medical or clinical science research. Research funding, too, becomes a problem right now as slowly becomes political rather than a national necessity.

Wish you good luck
If you were able to get into medical school, you're smart enough

Agreed
We need more. Physician scientists
