In expanding its mission, the school has maintained a tradition of excellence and innovation in education despite the challenge of meeting the demands of two population centers in Las Vegas and Reno, more than 400 miles apart. In spite of an increasingly difficult healthcare economy, the school has remained a leader in and contributed to the acceleration of biomedical knowledge and technology.
