First-year students at McGovern Medical School at UTHealth Houston completed their first anatomy lab lesson Aug. 7. The first lab each year is dedicated to the memory of Toshi Nikaido, MD, ’03, who showed a passion for anatomy as a student. Nikaido died in a tragic accident in 2003, and the annual dedication continues to honor his memory and enthusiasm for anatomy education.
