It is composed of six schools: McGovern Medical School, The University of Texas Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences at Houston, UTHealth School of Dentistry, UTHealth School of Nursing, UTHealth School of Biomedical Informatics and UTHealth School of Public Health. UTHealth faculty have been instrumental in pioneering the use of Tissue plasminogen activator and the development of Life Flight.
