But Why?

In part three of this four part series, I sit down with Dr. Bruce Carter, Professor of Biochemistry and Neuroscience at Vanderbilt University. Dr. Carter is a faculty advisor for the Vanderbilt MSTP, which means he mentors students throughout all phases of the program, and has enormous insight into the MD/PhD training process. We discussed the experiences he has had mentoring MSTP students, with all the struggles and triumphs that an 8 year program can bring.
