San Francisco
The Ernest Gallo Clinic and Research Center is seeking up to 150,000 sf in San Francisco for its new home. The Emeryville, Calif.-based clinic has considered Catellus Development's Mission Bay and some south of Market locations. Proximity to research and funding collaborator UCSF is a factor in the possible relocation to San Francisco. The Gallo Clinic performs research in neuroscience, cell biology, molecular biology, pharmacology, and biochemistry, seeking genetic keys and therapies for alcohol and drug abuse. The Gallo Clinic, which also houses a teaching and conference facility, is leasing 77,000 sf of recently constructed Emeryville space for the next ten years.
