When she was 4, Huber Heights resident Alayah Keys was diagnosed with Wilms’ tumor, a children’s kidney cancer. She considers her doctors heroes, and decided then that she wanted to be a pediatrician. Her participation in the Horizons in Medicine program at Wright State University Boonshoft School of Medicine last summer resulted in a four-year scholarship to WSU, where she will begin classes for a pre-med program in the fall.
“I had to go through chemo and radiation, and knew my doctors had saved me,” recalls the Wayne High School senior. “I wanted to do the same thing for other children.”

In addition to morning classes at WSU, participants spend their afternoons in a clinical setting.
