"The Doctorate of Medicine and of Philosophy (MD\u2013PhD) is a dual doctoral degree for physician\u2013scientists. The degree is granted by medical schools often through the Medical Scientist Training Program or other non-MSTP MD-PhD programs. The National Institutes of Health currently provides 43 medical schools with Medical Scientist Training Program grants that support the training of students in MD\u2013PhD programs at these institutions through tuition and stipend allowances."@en .
