We are deeply saddened to share the news that DGSOM alumnus, Keith Terasaki, passed away on December 22, 2024.   He will be missed and his legacy will carry on because of the impact of his dedication and generosity.

A double Bruin, Keith earned his bachelor’s degree from UCLA in 1977 and graduated from the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA in 1983.  In 2023, Keith was awarded the Edward A. Dickson Alumnus of the Year Award in honor of his visionary leadership and steadfast dedication to UCLA and the broader community.  The following video from the 2023 UCLA Awards ceremony highlights Keith’s accomplishments and longstanding relationship with UCLA: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=phKRfDIk7Ao
