The 2024 Toffler Scholar Program funding application cycle is open. The program was created by the Trustees of the Karen Toffler Charitable Trust, a 501 C3 nonprofit foundation focused on early-stage research that advances the medical field in profound, high-impact ways.

Partnering with the Florida State University College of Medicine, the program helps foster new ways of thinking and problem-solving to find solutions to humanity’s most difficult problems.
