After waiting 7 months, yesterday I got an interview invite at albany medical college. I'm not sure if I want to go, as im already in at WVU, and I believe WVU is better for my career aspirations. I want to do academic medicine. I know albany has a rich history of research (two Nobel laureates) but their NIH funding is about the same as WVU (WVU has $10 million, albany has $6 million). However, WVU is a large institution with a lot more resources. Cost is a non-factor, as I am out of state at WVU. I believe albany medical college is standalone or has some affiliations with local hospitals? So which would be better for a career in academic medicine?
