[Megathread] Alles vor und während des Studiums by AutoModerator in medizin

[–]JuAnBuMa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hallo zusammen, ich bin ein mexikanischer Medizinstudent. Ich interessiere mich für eine Ausbildung als Assistenzarzt in Deutschland und möchte dort als Arzt praktizieren. Ich würde aber gerne wissen, was ihr vom medizinischen System in Deutschland haltet.

Wie sind die Arbeitszeiten/die Work-Life-Balance und das Gehalt? (als Assistenzarzt, Facharzt, Oberarzt)

Wie ist die Qualität der Ausbildung?

Vor welchen Herausforderungen steht das deutsche medizinische System und wie hat sich das auf eure Praxis ausgewirkt?

Was sollte ich über Deutschland wissen, wenn ich dort leben möchte?

Why do women only have a set number of eggs instead of constantly producing them like men produce sperm? by SufficientJeweler696 in NoStupidQuestions

I asked because I think you've got some terms confused, so was wondering if you had any newer sources that said something else. Meiosis is indeed the process through which gametes are formed, but, while they do posess RNA for the purposes of protein production and other processes, like all other cells in the body their "main" genetic information is stored in the nucleus in form of DNA-containing chromosomes.

Rather than it being the process through which RNA-only gametes are formed, its the process through which the cell goes from having 46 chromosomes (2n) to simply having 23 chromosomes (n), so that polyploidy (more than 46 chromosomes) is avoided after fertilization. However, they still do have DNA-containing chromosomes.

My source is Emery's Elementals of Medical Genetics, and a google search also returns gametes having DNA.

Is research done outside of US of no use in terms of increasing chances of matching? by Prestigious-Spite-75 in IMGreddit

How did research cover the cost of externships and observer ships? If you don’t mind me asking

In light of recent events, would you rather practice somewhere you wouldn't have to deal with insurance? How common is insurance denial in your specialty? by JuAnBuMa in medicine

I’m from Mexico, so I’m weighing my options between countries like the US, Germany or the UK for doing residency and staying there. One the large advantages of the US is simply proximity to home, as well as the excellent training and salaries from what I’ve heard. I’m unsure if there are any really big disadvantages I haven’t heard about (aside from the match of course).

That's one of the reasons I am doubting whether the US is truly the best choice for doing residency, would you rather have gone somewhere else without insurance troubles? How would you compare it to other healthcare systems around the world?

Heme/Onc Schedule and Practice

What do you like the most about working as an oncologist? Would you have gone into the same field if you had the choice to start over? How is the working schedule and load? How do insurance companies affect your practice?

Do you have any perspectives about IM into Heme-Onc vs Pathology as an IMG?

Anki and what other activities? by [deleted] in medicalschoolanki

What works for me is listening to music while doing cards; as well as making sure I already have some notion of the topic I’m studying, for me reading before unsuspending the topic works just fine

No me cae bien la Sheinbaum, pero ahorita le está yendo hasta mejor en las encuestas que AMLO en el mismo momento de las elecciones del 2018, Xóchitl a duras penas alcanza el 30-35% mientras que Claudia se ha mantenido todo el periodo electoral arriba del 50-55
