APSA Panel: Team Based Science Location: Crystal Room The past several decades have witnessed a dramatic increase in the scale and complexity of scientific and translational research. As the complexity of today’s most pressing health issues and diseases is revealed, collaborations among scientists trained in different fields, from bioinformatics to molecular genetics to biomedical policy, have become essential for exploring and advancing biomedical research discoveries. Given their dual training in medicine and scientific research, physician-scientists are poised to lead team science and the multidisciplinary research initiatives. Our session aims to answer: What constitutes successful team science? What are examples physician-scientists have used in their research endeavors to promote team science productivity? Why do some research teams succeed while others do not? What factors maximize a research team’s productivity or effectiveness? What detracts from team science success? |

APSA Panel: The Dos and Don'ts of MSTP Admissions Location: Embassy Room Come visit with the MSTP directors to learn about how you can become a competitive applicant. The application process can be daunting so this is a great opportunity to be able to ask your questions directly to those with the inside scoop. |
| 11:00 am – 12:00 pm |
Location: Gold Room Mirroring the shift from medical to graduate school, the return to- and finishing of- medical school prompts medical scientist trainees to address one glaring challenge: starting the next chapter of our professional lives. The purpose of this panel is to enlighten audience members on how to smoothly navigate the often-stressful and seemingly complicated process of transitioning from the later phase of the MD/PhD curriculum towards your own, personal career trajectory. Consisting of a 4th year medical student, PSTP residency director, and resident/fellow on the panel, the intention is to open the entire room up for discussion. Though the focus is on transitions, all topics are highly encouraged for debate, ranging from questions about the traditional academic sequence (e.g., residency, interviewing, match, fellowship, etc.) to the more provocative consideration of non-academic career paths. |
| 12:00 pm – 2:00 pm |
Location: Rouge Come get your questions answered by the experts about specific programs and the nature of physician-scientist training after medical and graduate school. If you are applying to residency soon, this is an unrivaled opportunity to directly connect with program directors. Find a list of all the programs here |
