The Tri-Institutional MD–PhD Program is a MD–PhD degree program based in Upper East Side, New York City. Introduced in 1991, the current program is operated by Weill Cornell Medicine, Rockefeller University, and Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center's Sloan Kettering Institute.[3][4][5][6]

The program is currently directed by Katharine C. Hsu.[7]

Students who complete the program are awarded an M.D. from Weill Cornell Medical College and a Ph.D. from either Weill Cornell Medicine Graduate School of Medical Sciences, Rockefeller University, or the Gerstner Sloan Kettering Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences.

In 2019, the program processed over 500 applications for 18 spots. These positions are funded by the National Institutes of Health Medical Scientist Training Program (MSTP)[8] for the full length of training, which is typically 7–8 years.[9]

In recent years, the program has pioneered a summer program known as "Gateways to the Laboratory" in order to increase the number of students who are from underrepresented backgrounds in science and medicine.[10] Alumni from this program often matriculate in the Tri-Institutional MD–PhD Program, and make up a significant portion of its class.
