A Message from Dean Gebo
Welcome to the Milken Institute School of Public Health. What drew me here—and what continues to inspire me every day—is the strength of this community. For over 25 years, faculty, staff, students, and alumni have built a school defined by excellence, collaboration, and a deep commitment to advancing health and equity. It is an honor to serve as dean of such a remarkable institution, and as the proud parent of a Milken Institute SPH alumni, I feel a special connection to the school’s mission and impact.
