The University of California San Francisco (UCSF) is planning the Mission Bay Cancer Research Center. The research facility, expected to reach completion in 2006, will cost over $100-million. UCSF plans to develop a total of 2.65 million sf of biomedical laboratory and instructional space at its Mission Bay campus, for a construction cost of more than $2-billion. Buildings under construction on campus currently include a four-story community center, a five-story research facility for neuroscience, developmental biology and genetics, and the headquarters for the Institute for Quantitative Biomedical Research. UCSF is designated by the National Cancer Institute (NCI) as a comprehensive cancer center, and has recently received approximately $21-million in NCI funding.
