Medical Scientist Training Program
 The University of Wisconsin Medical Scientist Training Program (MSTP) provides integrated graduate training in scientific research and clinical medicine leading to a combined MD/PhD degree. The UW MSTP values diversity and provides a broad array of research opportunities that span the frontiers of biomedical and health sciences. Our goal is to produce physician-scientists who will make major contributions to the understanding and improvement of human health.
A longstanding core philosophy of the MSTP is that the rigor and caliber of both the MD and PhD components should be equivalent to those of single degree candidates. We believe that such training optimizes the chance for a productive career as an independent physician-investigator. The program works to insure that students take full advantage of the remarkable resources and opportunities present at UW-Madison for both medical education and graduate research training. A second core philosophy is that some of the most valuable learning will be from other students. Thus, we aim for a diversity of research interests among our students that approaches the diversity that is present in an academic medical center, and we provide multiple venues for students to interact. The majority of student theses are in areas that require strong training in the traditional biological sciences, but we are proving that we can foster students working in population-based health research and bioengineering. A third core philosophy is that all our graduates will be doing translational research, albeit to variable degrees. Priority is given to the acquisition of research skills and development of knowledge that place the student at the forefront of her or his research field. At the same time, students are challenged to relate research findings to clinical medicine and when appropriate to address clinical problems with their research techniques. All students receive training in the design and execution of clinical trials
