Scripps Med School To Focus on Research, Patient Care
The Scripps Research Institute and Scripps Health plan to launch the country's first medical school focused entirely on training physicians for dual careers in research and patient care. The Scripps institute needs to raise $150 million in startup funding for the medical school, and organizers plan to accept their inaugural group of students in 2013.
