The UCSF Mission Bay research campus opened in 2003 at one of the offsite University of San Francisco locations. This biotechnology hub combines medical facilities, university research and industry collaboration. The level of integration and collaboration between facilities will accelerate new discoveries and allow them to move quickly from basic research into clinical practice. Since the opening of Genentech Hall, seven new buildings have been added to the campus, and two more are in planning and scheduled to begin construction.
