I also am an MD/PhD interviewing for pediatrics, and that is the general
impression I got from my interviews -- that it would be much more
advantageous to "reverse fast track" -- saving a year off of your
fellowship. At this point, I would hope that we don't need additional
training to show us how to do research.

However, I am also planning to split clinical and research time.
For those who are never planning to see a patient again, a
year saved is an extra year in the lab.
