Three years after the last post, I'd like to revive this old thread
I'm an MS1, and I'm really interested in medical genetics. My undergrad focused heavily on genomics and I just loved it. Since it's a fairly small community, I've never met a clinical geneticist (I am supposed to do an elective in medical genetics this summer, but have yet to meet my preceptor). I was just wondering if anyone around here is/knows a resident in medical genetics who'd be willing to answer a few questions? This thread is great, but since most of the posts date from +10 years ago, I'm just not sure how relevant it still is.
I'm mostly curious about patient interaction, the importance of research in medical genetics, work schedule, etc.
