Medical Society of the State of New York s

MSSNY / Dr. Duane and Joyce Cady Physicians of Tomorrow Scholarship

Made possible by the generosity of donors to the MSSNY / Dr. Duance and Joyce Cady Honor Fund.  This $10,000 scholarship is awarded to students currently attending a medical school in the state of New York. Applicants must be actively involved in organized medicine with plans to practice in the state of New York.

Meet the 2021 recipients:

Christopher George is a Columbia University graduate, New York Academy of Medicine Valentine Scholar presently working on a project to predict distant metastasis of early-stage melanoma at Erasmus Medical Center in the Netherlands. If successful, this project could pave the way for earlier induction of immunotherapy in patients, a change that can improve the prognosis for the approximately 1,700 Americans who lose their lives to early-stage melanoma annually.

He also serves his peers by coordinating national education conferences and workshops for medical students of color as a Student National Medical Association National Research Vice Co-Chair.

 

Daniel Veyg is the oldest son of Ukrainian immigrants and was born and raised in Brooklyn, New York. He currently attends the New York Institute of Technology College of Osteopathic Medicine. Daniel has been vocal about advocating for equity for his peers in the residency match process through his role on the education committee of the Society of Interventional Radiology. He has also collaborated with his colleagues as an academic affairs committee member to improve the curriculum and create clinical skills workshops and board review sessions.

Daniel aspires to train and practice as an interventional radiologist at an academic center in New York City, where he can care for the communities that helped raise him.
