The Double Docs Podcast: the MD-PhD Journey

Double Docs: An MD-PhD Podcast

The Double Docs Podcast is about all things MD/PhD! We are three MD/PhD students at UCLA/Caltech looking to share our experiences and what one can expect as a dual degree student. We hope our podcast helps provide insight into these programs as well as helpful tips for undergrad research, med school applications, and more. You'll also hear from our amazing classmates and faculty who'll join us each week to provide their unique perspectives. We hope you get something out of listening and look forward to meeting you future MD/PhDs! Hosts: Daniel Tang, Dimitri Cadet, George Daghlian
