Coming up on 20 years, some thoughts to those MDs looking to be physician-scientist

With MD training only, I was so naïve on how to run a lab🤦🏼‍♀️. I didn't know how to make sure my clinical time was protected. I didn't know a lot.

thoughts....
1/
1⃣ GATHER information from other PIs, at the place you or at & if going some where new.

ASK: about graduate groups, basic science departments, sign up for various scientific groups (u will be surprised where your research might take u)

ASK: HOW do you run their lab. DETAILS
2/
2⃣ BE INVOVED, FIND STUDENTs & POSTDOC

Graduate students & postdoc are needed. Techs are amazing but not enough for you to build your lab.

When doing clinical work & starting a lab, esp at a new place, this can be hard to do!! Know resources & get help early
