John F. Gaugl Endowed Scholarship

The John F. Gaugl Endowed Scholarship was established in 2008 in memory of former HSC employee, Dr. John F. Gaugl. Dr. Gaugl founded TCOM’s Physiology Department in 1971 and died of breast cancer in July of 1997. He loved teaching and loved his medical students, so much so that he continued to lecture throughout two years of chemotherapy treatments, never missing a class. This scholarship was created to honor Dr. Gaugl by supporting outstanding CBTS students in the Integrative Physiology Discipline.
