Our mission is to foster the development of individuals committed to science and research for the physical and mental health of Puerto Ricans. For the past 11 years we have helped more than 2K medicine students, researchers, undergraduate, pre-college students and others, in their professional growth through our scholarship program and other donations.
Conference Scholarship
She is a 2025 Conference Scholarship recipient and will conclude her second year at the Universidad Central del Caribe during the month of May. In April, Patricia had the opportunity to present her research titled ADHD, Cerebellar White Matter Tracts and Cognition in Youth with Neurofibromatosis Type 1. Her project was presented at the 2025 American Academy of Neurology Annual Conference in San Diego, California. This conference represents a crucial opportunity for the student to deepen her interests in neurology, neurosurgery, and pediatrics, learning innovative techniques in scientific discovery and medical education. Patricia tells us, “As a second-year medical student pursuing a residency in pediatric neurology, I am honored that this research was accepted for presentation at the American Academy of Neurology Annual Conference—my first time presenting at such a renowned, large-scale gathering of experts in the field. This experience will allow me to not only share my findings with a specialized audience, but also interact with leading practitioners, researchers, and mentors who are shaping the future of neurology”.
Scientific Research Scholarship
He is a recipient of the Scientific Research Scholarship this year, 2025, and is about to complete his 4th year of medical school at the Medical Sciences Campus. Along with his principal investigator, Dr. Miguel Mayol Del Valle, Carlos is working on a project titled Two Decades of Data: The First Population-Based Study of Primary CNS Tumors in Puerto Rico. This project significantly enriches the student’s medical career by allowing him to participate in neurosurgical research with direct implications for patient care. The student also gains invaluable experience in clinical research methodology, data analysis, and the practical application of findings to improve patient outcomes in Puerto Rico. Carlos shares, “…I hope this initiative will spur a broader movement, creating a multiplier effect and inspiring other medical students and professionals to actively participate in local clinical research. Ultimately, my goal is to cultivate a strong research culture focused on addressing health disparities and improving medical practices tailored directly to the unique needs of our community”.
Scientific Research Scholarship
She is a recipient of the Scientific Research Scholarship this year, 2025, and is about to complete her 2nd year at the San Juan Bautista School of Medicine. Together with her principal investigator, Dr. Yaritza Inostroza Nieves, the student is working on a project titled “In Vitro Effects of Endometriosis-Associated Inflammatory Factors on Neuronal Excitability and Morphology.” Deyaneira shares, “From a personal perspective, this project represents an important opportunity for my training as a future physician and scientist. It allows me to develop skills in cell biology, neuroscience, and electrophysiology, fundamental tools for translational research in neurological diseases. It helps me strengthen my ability to design experimental models that integrate different physiological systems, which is essential for understanding complex diseases such as endometriosis and epilepsy. From a clinical level, the findings of this study could open up new therapeutic possibilities by combining neuropharmacological and hormonal treatments. If we can understand how endometriosis impacts brain function, we could identify drugs that reduce neuronal hyperexcitability and provide a more precise and effective approach for patients with neurological symptoms associated with this disease.”
