[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] My husband is a cancer researcher with an MD/PhD. I don't know why the PP associates that with Big Pharma - most research is publicly funded and at NIH or other similar institutions. Since we're in that world, we know plenty of kids who want to be doctors and scientists.[/quote] We know a decent amount of kids from DS’s cohort (biochem at a t5) who are working in biotech-adjacent positions at companies like DE Shaw, Gilead and Vertex. Very few are in academic positions where public funds are running through. It’s really hard to get a good academic position for this type of work, even with elite credentials[/quote]
