The Conference Site

Mission Bay Conference Center
1675 Owens Street
San Francisco, CA

The Mission Bay Conference Center is an exciting meeting destination, located on the life sciences campus of the University of California at San Francisco. Located just south of downtown San Francisco, and convenient to Oakland and Berkeley, the Center is steps away from the AT&T Ballpark, shopping, hotels and entertainment. Designed by award-winning architect Ricardo Legorreta, the Center is a world-class setting with everything from ergonomic furnishings and dramatic color to the latest technology to inspire your experience.

If you are staying at the Palomar, we will run a bus between the hotel and the conference center at either end of the day. Details will be available at the hotel when you check in.

Public Transportation

Muni: The T-Third Metro Line picks up at the 4th and King Street Caltrain Station, as well as the Embarcadero BART station. The appropriate stop is the UCSF Mission Bay Station on 3rd Street, across from the campus.

BART: Take the BART to the "16th Street Mission" station. From this point, pick up the Red Line UCSF shuttle in front of the Burger King on the Northeast corner of the intersection. The shuttle runs every 15 minutes and brings you to the Conference Center (2nd stop).
