Thanks, Path! That is indeed inspirational to see stories of people combining science and medicine. Perfect timing, too - as I’m prepping for my UIC MSTP interview, which is this coming Sunday/Monday. Woohoo!

Great article! I remember reading this article few days before my interview!! I am also a PhD (Molecular Biology), 35, and just got my acceptance today, few days after interviewing! As a PhD in cancer research, I missed the "people aspect " of being an MD. Interestingly I was interviewed first by a Ph.D and then an MD & both spent time asking lots of interesting questions about my research. Good Luck on your interview Terra_incognita
