Best universities for PG Pharmacy in US?

Please let me know the best top universities for Pharmacy (pharmaceutical sciences, pharmacology, clinical research) in US. My TOEFL score is 91, passed Bpharm with 68% from India

Best universities for PG Pharmacy in US?
Perhaps you can re-test, I'm afraid your looking at 2nd -3rd tier schools. I'd suggest the University of Toledo. If you want to get into a top school, for example USC or Drake, etc... you'll need to do better.


Can Psy.D. doctors still do research?

I know those who go for a PSYD are more focused on clinical practice but can they still do research?

Can Psy.D. doctors still do research?
Yes, some choose to do research instead of practice. I think the shooting two weeks ago would be an answer, what causes violent antisocial behaviour.





Companies also engage Phd Psych in research. One example I know of is how to make people feel less anxious on airplanes which lead to the introduction of white noise, changing the optics of the windows to help those who are afraid of heights. A lot of companies hire Phd Psych to help improve the appealability of their products, help police forces profile people who commit certain crimes, the list is almost endless.

How can I live mo. to mo. w/out a job and weed? (no joke answers please!)?

Whats up guys, I've been making a nice living doing clinical research studies, like they pay $3,000+ if you're in the right ones so its enough to pay a few mo. rent. But basically I'm wondering, how can I set things up (welfare etc. I have issues and have gone to a mental hospital) so I can A. Pay rent B. Get food and C. Smoke ganja. I mean I could continue to put my health @ risk w/ the clinical studies and I have friedns that have done it for years, however, b/c of my issues, I want to have the luxury to be able to smoke herbs again.





P.S. E-bay is good too, but I don't have any suppliers for any non replica products.





Peace yall, no joke answers please.

If it were so easy to live and not work, we'd ALL be doing that. Come on. It's really not possible. You can be self-employed and be a handyman for hire, if you can get yourself out the door.
Reply:We won't make joke answers if you stop making joke questions. Why should you feed on the public purse (welfare) when you haven't contributed anything to society? And by the sounds of things, you don't ever intend to.


Clinical trials career?

How can I go from academic research to getting a job in the clinical trials in the UK? Do many CROs offer traineeships for CRAs or CT monitors?

Clinical trials career?
Hello,





(ANS) I think if you have academic research in, or about pharmaceuticals, or drug research, or another close medical area then you might well have a reasonable chance of moving from academia into trials. Even more so if you have a degree in a related or relevant area.

Any Clinical Psychologists/therapists out there?

I was wondering what kind of job I could get with my education and experience so far. I have an MA in Clinical Psychology from Columbia University, but it is only a 1 yr program without any practicum training. I have tons of research experience at UC Berkeley (undergraduate) and Columbia, but very limited clinical experience (volunteered at a Suicide prevention hotline). Also, I have practically zero work experience.


Ideally, I want to get a clinically oriented position as a case manager, or assistant in a treatment program.


I would appreciate any practical advice on the kinds of positions I would be considered for, and even on the typical salary range I should expect.


My ultimate career goal is to have a private practice as a Ph.D. level psychologist (currently waiting for interviews from programs in NY).


Last thing - I am looking for work in either Manhattan or the San Francisco Bay Area

What do you mean?
Reply:One thing, that you could do, is check with your county civil service department, and ask them, when there is a civil service exam scheduled, in your field..There are many civil service jobs, that will give you the experience, that you will need..It is a very good starting point, and the experience, is invaluable..You can also, check with your state department of civil services..Contact your state representative, and inquire about state exams, which might be coming soon..Good Luck..

How much does a humand geneticist with an M.D. make?

I am interested in going into human genetics-either research or clinical-and was wondering what kind of salary I could potentially make.

How much does a humand geneticist with an M.D. make?
Probably more than a non-human geneticist...those poor monkeys are so under paid ;)





Seriously though, if you want to do science research do it because you have an inquisitive mind and not for the money. Expect to be poor for a long time... the money will come eventually but there are far easier ways to make it. You'll need about 8 years of schooling followed by a few years of post doc work (which pays only slightly more than grad school). If you are doing academic research (i.e. at a university) don't expect to make much more than a highschool teacher until you get tenure. If you are doing medical research at a hospital you will fare a little better (cancer is where the money is). If you go into research with only a BSc. or a Masters expect to make very little money (you'd make more as a custodian). You need the M.D. or a Ph.D. (which takes even longer) to earn a decent wage. Sorry to dissapoint you, but I've gone through it and it's tough. Do science because you love it, if you're lucky you'll be able to feed yourself too.
