Keck School of Medicine of USC

Keck School of Medicine of USC

The school has moved to the Health Sciences Campus two miles northeast of downtown Los Angeles, instead of the main University Park campus at the Southern edge of downtown LA. The Los Angeles County-USC Medical Center is adjacent to the campus. The Keck School of Medicine also has many research institutes including the Institute for Health Promotion and Disease Prevention Research with an additional campus in Alhambra, California.

In 1999, the school was renamed the Keck School of Medicine of the University of Southern California, in honor of a $110 million gift from the W. M. Keck Foundation. On November 1st, 2007, Carmen A. Puliafito, M.D., M.B.A. was appointed to the position of Dean of the Keck School of Medicine of USC.
