Physician Careers in the Financial Services Industry (MD/MBA 8th AMMP Conference)

Are you interested in a non-clinical career in financial services?

Here's a video of a presentation given by Dr. Jonathan Gertler at the 8th Annual AMMP conference titled, "Physician Roles, Opportunities, and Responsibilities in Financial Services." I blogged about his presentation (here) back in April when I was in Boston attending the Association of MD/MBA Programs (AMMP) 8th Annual Conference. Now, you can view a video of his presentation and his slides here (you'll need Microsoft Silverlight to play the video).

Here's a brief description:
