For a career in genetics research, what kind of jobs are available in the marketplace? Is it more likely I will be working with a University rather than a private company?

I am hoping to be a researcher in the field of genetics. I am definitely curious as to where I will be working post-graduation because I want to make sure I have some sort of job security. #medicine #science #biology

For a career in research, do you recommend getting an MD and a PhD so you can leave the clinical option open?

I have talked with a professional in my chosen field and they suggested getting an MD because it allows you to do both the clinical and research side of the field. I'm pretty sure I only want to do research but I think I need more information about it. #medicine #biology
