Seriously, i have seen a 90 yr old graduate with a mathematics degree.....

In all essence, in America, Age is not a big issue !

Yeah u might not be able to work like a "dog" when u r 50+ doing residency, but then again, i highly doubt residency has a age 'requirement" !

Ofc age matters, but more importantly the year of graduation from medical school, you have to show that you have remained clinically involved post-graduation.

and we all know that as we age, our minds are not as sharp as when your are younger, there is a learning curve issue- ever heard that saying " can't teach an old dog new tricks"

and for argument sake, imagine a 90 year old man sustaining the stress of residency and a hectic schedule..

Hi,

I have research positions available in different states and in different (sub)specialties which include cardiology, endocrinology, pulmonary, surgery, sleep medicine, and neurology. The states include PA, NY, IL, MI, MD and TX at this point. The majority of the positions are in universities, and some of them are in universities that are among the top 10 in the U.S. You can contact me for details.
If you're looking for a different state or (sub)specialty, I can help too. I just need you to be specific and help me understand what you’re looking for.

If interested, contact me at matissiti. Provide some brief info about yourself, your visa status, your USMLE scores, what (sub)specialty, which state, when you want to start and for how long.
In the subject, please mention what you’re looking for. For example: “Endocrine research in Chicago.”

Thank you.
