California Institute for Quantitative Biomedical Research
a powerful merger
UCSF
Mission Bay serves as the headquarters of a path-breaking program
that capitalizes on the newest technological capabilities. Popularly
known as “QB3,” the California Institute for Quantitative
Biomedical Research is a partnership between UCSF, UC Berkeley
and UC Santa Cruz that will create powerful new techniques for
manipulating vast amounts of biological data using quantitative
and biomedical sciences. This integration of mathematics, physics,
chemistry and engineering will lead to treatments for intractable
diseases such as brain disorders, cancer and diabetes.
