Has anyone else ever heard of an MD-PhD student being called a "mud-phud"? I'm in a PhD program (and have several friends that are MD-PhD candidates) and my wife is an MD and I've never heard of this term.

I’m a mud-phud, use it myself and have heard it used all over!

What region? This thread is the first I've heard of it too.

Northeast for the most part, heard it as far south as NC

Wow, so interesting. I go to school in the northeast. I'll have to ask around.
