Task: Question Answering
Input (English): passage: The Doctorate of Medicine and of Philosophy (MD--PhD) is a dual doctoral degree for physician--scientists, combining the vocational training of the Doctor of Medicine degree with the research expertise of the Doctor of Philosophy degree. The degree is granted by medical schools often through the Medical Scientist Training Program or other non-MSTP MD--PhD programs. The National Institutes of Health currently provides 43 medical schools with Medical Scientist Training Program grants that support the training of students in MD--PhD programs at these institutions through tuition and stipend allowances. These programs are often competitive, with some admitting as few as two students per academic year. The MCAT score and GPA of MD--PhD matriculants are often higher than MD only matriculants.
