Kathleen is joined by Scott Scouten, a fourth-year LECOM dual degree student, and they discuss his journey from a biomedical sciences undergraduate to pursuing a Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine (DO) and a PhD in Anatomy Education. Scott highlights the benefits of LECOM's postbac program, which includes a master's degree and a guaranteed spot in the medical program with a certain GPA. He details the intensive first year of the PhD program, which covers anatomy, embryology, histology, and neuroanatomy, and his focus on cognitive load in medical education for his dissertation. Scott emphasizes the commitment required but also the satisfaction and competitive edge gained from the dual degree.
