<p>I recently started debating on going to med school in the future. I will be a senior in high school this upcoming year and was wondering if there's a medical paired major that if for some reason I decided against med school, I'd be able to do research in the medical field. Thanks</p>
<p>Depends on what you mean by “do research in the medical field”. If you want to run your own lab/experiments, etc you need a PhD. With just a BS, you’d basically just be a lab assistant doing someone else’s experiments.</p>
