UCSF's Mission Bay Campus, also located in San Francisco, is the largest ongoing biomedical construction project in the world.

The Mission Bay campus, opened in 2003 with construction still ongoing, contains additional research space and facilities to foster biotechnology and life sciences companies.

It will double the size of UCSF's research enterprise over the next 10 years.

The biotechnology company Genentech contributed $ 50 million toward construction of a building as part of a settlement regarding alleged theft of UCSF technology several decades earlier.

Also located on the Mission Bay campus, the Arthur and Toni Rembe Rock Hall was designed by César Pelli and opened in February 2004.

The building is named in honor of Arthur Rock and his wife, who made a $ 25 million gift to the university.

Byers Hall serves as the headquarters for the California Institute for Biomedical Research ( QB3 ), a cooperative effort between the UC campuses at San Francisco, Berkeley, and Santa Cruz.

The building is named after venture capitalist Brook Byers, co-chair of UCSF's capital campaign that concluded in 2005 and raised over $ 1. 6 billion.

Additionally, the William J. Rutter Center, designed along with the adjacent 600-space parking structure by Ricardo Legorreta, opened in October 2005 and contains a fitness and recreation center, swimming pools, student services, and conference facilities.

The building is named in honor of William J. Rutter, former chairman of the university's Department of Biochemistry & Biophysics and co-founder of Chiron Corporation.

A housing complex for 750 students and postdoctoral fellows and an 800-space parking garage also opened in late 2005.

And a fourth research building, designed by Rafael Viñoly and named the Helen Diller Family Cancer Research Building, opened in June 2009.

Two additional research buildings designated for neuroscience and cardiovascular research are currently in the planning and design phase.

UCSF is also in the early stages of planning for a new specialty hospital focused on women, children, and cancer to be built at the Mission Bay campus and scheduled to open by the end of 2014.
