Partnering with Universities to support researchers at a pivotal point in their careers

Through partnerships with leading universities, the Toffler Scholar program supports promising young medical researchers, physicians, and scientists who are at a pivotal point in their careers. Where others see risk, we see the potential for profound impact. As so often happens in medical science, young researchers lack the support necessary to compete with established labs. For most traditional funding organizations, early-stage projects are considered too risky. As a result, some of the most promising ideas stall. With necessary early-stage funding and a vital, relevant network, recipients have the resources they need to continue their groundbreaking work and develop into experienced professionals.
