MD-PhD
Recent Graduates
The University of Florida has been sponsoring, informally, the education of MD-PhD Physician-Scientists since the mid-1980s. In 2007, the College of Medicine formalized the MD-PhD Training Program, and in 2021, the program came under the leadership of the new Directorate, composed of Drs. Segal, McCormack, Fredenburg & Zarrinpar. Included below are all of the alumni of the formalized MD-PhD program.
