MD-PhD program graduates are an important pillar in Biomedical research in general, and particularly in the conduction of translational medical research. Developed countries invest significant efforts in this unique human-talent resource which in turn can contribute greatly to the local ecosystem advancing the healthcare, industrial and academic sectors.
This research was commissioned by the Israel Medical Association, and the purpose of this research is to examine key characteristics in the integration of Israeli MD-PhD program graduates in the last two decades. The study examines, among other things, the integration of graduates in the various sectors in Israel and their opportunity to realize their research capabilities in accordance with their training.
