Dietetic Majors/Dietitians, career help please?
Hi there, I'm currently a junior in college in Chicago majoring in Dietetics, (I just switched my major), and need some help knowing all the options for this major. First off, is being a Dietitian/Nutritionist the only career to do with this major? I want to help people in the field of nutrition/health obviously, I just don't know if there's other things you can do career wise. Also, my main question of focus is, is there a job/Dietitian job where you can travel internationally? As in helping underdeveloped countries with health issues? Where you would maybe go there for a few weeks or make frequent trips to countries to be needed wherever necessary. This would be my dream. I've already talked to my adviser, unfortunately they weren't very informative and only spoke of working at a local hospital, which I'm not very interested in. Also, when I've tried to research these questions, it kept bringing up the Peace Corps, where as I'm not really interested in that either. One last thing I was wondering is which career in a Dietetics Major has the highest salary? My biggest concern is wanting to travel internationally or nationally, but if that's not possible or poses a problem I'm interested in knowing which career makes the most. I'm just really nervous about my career and get anxiety attacks thinking about having a job where I'll be stuck in one place for the next 50 years of my life.. Sorry, that was quite a few questions, I know, but thank you for reading and if you could answer them I'd really appreciate it! Thanks again!
What are further studying options after MD Pediatrics (completed in India) in India as well as abroad?
The following options are there :1. Pediatric subspecialty in India : DM Neonatology seats are available in many institutions; entrances are competitive. DNB neonatology, in my opinion, is a far better option, due to better equipped institutes and no bond.DM for other subspecialities are there in PGIMER, Chandigarh and AIIMS, though few and exceedingly competitive. FNB( fellowship national board ) in some specialities is available across India, further training is usually required from abroad. 2. Abroad You usually require home country experience in a subspecialty and publications in that field before applying for a fellowship abroad. USA is usually not an option unless you have USMLE. UK, Canada and Australia are good options after you have gained a fellowship in india.
Can a Pharm.D. student do an MD in general medicine in colleges in India?
Are you crazy or have become one recently who told his shit ,only people who does mbbs are eligible to become doctors and md Gen med is a pg degree after mbbs only,if you are interested in medicine better write medical entrance exams which are quite tough and demanding ,take lots of time and money and energy ,Becoming a doctor is not easy and there aren't any shortcuts like you have thought of ,it is a dedicated professional ,nobody degrades the profession by lateral entries just like in other degrees,it involves treating pts not simply mechanical ,You felt you have known which drug to be dispensed doesn't mean you can treat pts ,doctor profession involves Deep study of whole disease process affecting mankind .
Has anyone seen this list of prominent scientists that believe in the Biblical account of creation?
Good to know. Don't get offended by these people who posts messages here. They want show everyone that they are right. Just listen to them. I am a Biology student in college and I am a Christian. Atheists believe that because you are a Christian you completely dismiss evolution theories which is not true and can't be a "true" scientists which is a ignorant statement. There are many scientists who acknowledge God and are a positive influences of society. Instead of looking at the past like this atheist do wasting their time and trying to figure out what happened in the beginning of the world. These Christians scientists already know what really happened in the past, they use their minds to improve the future and help others. I believe that certain things have changed by evolution but not every single thing. I believe that God created everything first, but certain things changed, others disappeared, etc. Like dinosaurs for example. Also there are more scientists who believe in God in the whole world as atheists. As a science student I interact with them all the time. Science is for everybody not only for atheists.........lol. Let these people wins in their minds, You and me knows who is the true winner. They think they have more intellect than God himself, but let them be. Not everything can be proved scientifically. History can't be proved scientifically, but it can be proved with evidence, and we have enough evidence to prove that Jesus existed and what was his purpose here. Remember than you can't repeat those events over and over and over to prove that it exists by being proved scientifically. So scientific evidences are pretty weak and aren't that powerful like this people think. Remember than these people love to challenge God and prove they are better than him, but soon they will have their time and they will know who has the power.
I am a Bachelor student in Medicine and I'm planning do to a MD/PHD programme. Does the choice of MD/PHD determine which specialisation you will take in later in your career?
A little bit. At Stanford, the MD/PhD candidates are strongly discouraged from pursuing a surgical speciality, the reason being that because surgery takes so much time (and to be a good surgeon, it takes practice), the lifestyle is hard to reconcile with the time commitments required to be a scientist.Of course, there are exceptions, and MD/PhDs have gone on to become successful surgeon–scientists, but it is less common than other specialities. The faculty here say that "If you really want to do surgery, become a neurosurgeon." — it makes sense since it's one of the more research heavy surgical specialities.From anecdotal evidence, I've seen MD/PhDs biased towards specialities such as pathology, hematology/oncology, infectious disease, genetics (including pediatric medical genetics), and neurology. I'd be curious to see if NRMP/AAMC has any data to support this.To wrap up, some MD/PhDs forgo medical practice all together — my old mentor (who is an incredible basic science researcher) at Columbia, at his MD/PhD graduation, the dean at Yale jokingly said to him "We'll give you your MD if you promise to never practice medicine." And he never did.
