Deborah K. Kayser Scholarship

The Deborah K. Kayser Scholarship Fund (484386) empowers the next generation of physicians who are dedicated to transforming the future of cancer research and patient care. Established on May 22, 2025, through the generosity of Roger Kayser, this fund provides meaningful financial support to MD students with a passion for advancing discoveries in cancer prevention, treatment, and cures.

Each year, the fund awards significant scholarship support to one or more exceptional medical students. Preference is given to those who demonstrate a clear interest in pursuing a career in cancer research—individuals whose curiosity, commitment, and compassion mirror the spirit of this fund’s namesake.

By easing the financial burden of medical education, the Deborah K. Kayser Scholarship Fund allows promising students to focus fully on their studies, innovate boldly, and step confidently into the field of oncology research. Scholarships may be renewed for recipients who remain in good academic standing and continue to embody the fund’s purpose.

Your support strengthens this legacy.
Your generosity fuels breakthroughs.
Together, we can help future physicians change—and save—lives.
