Sure, here are a few universities in California recognized for high-quality programs in Biomedical Sciences:

1. Stanford University: Stanford is known for its strong biomedical program, particularly for leading-edge research. The program is highly interdisciplinary, combining the fields of biology and medicine. It's a great choice if you're also interested in conducting research.

2. University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA): The Biomedical Research Minor at UCLA allows serious students of medicine to conduct extensive practical study. The curriculum is designed for students considering graduate-school-level training in a biomedical discipline.

3. University of California, San Francisco (UCSF): While UCSF doesn't have undergrad programs (it's grad-school-only), it's worth noting due to its reputation in biomedical science. The program strongly emphasizes research, and students have the opportunity to work with world-class faculty.

4. University of California, San Diego (UCSD): UCSD offers a Biomedical Sciences major and is known for high-impact research. It's particularly known for its strength in Molecular Biology.

5. University of Southern California (USC): USC offers a Bachelor of Science in Human Biology with a concentration in Human Performance. It covers a wide range of topics including genetics, nutrition, physiology, and kinesiology.

Remember, it's not just about the prestige of the program. Look for a culture and environment that you think you'd thrive in, research opportunities you're excited about, and professors you're interested in working with. Best of luck in your search!
