UC Davis School of Medicine Committed to Student Research


Nathan Gunn, MD, has experience not only as a physician but also as a leader in the health care technology field, having served Valence Health as president. Dr. Nathan Gunn earned his medical degree from the University of California, Davis (UC Davis), School of Medicine, which remains dedicated to providing students with research opportunities. 

The UC Davis School of Medicine offers students a number of options to gain valuable exposure to research, including summer research programs and longitudinal studies throughout medical school. The following are a few opportunities for students to engage in more in-depth research: 

- T32 Pre-Doctoral Clinical Research Training Program. Designed for junior trainees, this program engages students in a year of research as they learn the skills necessary for multidisciplinary translational and clinical translational research in human health. By participating in this program, students can also earn a master of advanced studies in clinical research.

- Medical Student Research Fellowship. This fellowship program supplements students’ medical training through direct involvement in clinical investigation or research on health care delivery. 

- Physician Scientist Training Program (P.S.T.P.). Geared toward students who are pursuing a career in academia within a specific research field, this program allows students to earn both an MD and a PhD as they become physician scientists.
