    UC San Francisco aims to be a destination for learners across the community – faculty, staff, students and trainees – a place where those who seek to grow their knowledge and improve their skills have the opportunity to succeed in pursuit of our collective mission of advancing health worldwide.

  • Equity and Inclusion

    Diversity is a defining feature of UC San Francisco and a source of strength that is critical to our success. Our differences – of race, ethnicity, gender, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity, age, socioeconomic status, abilities, experience and more – enhance our ability to achieve our core missions of research, teaching, patient care and public service. We are committed to enhancing an environment that includes, celebrates and serves our diverse communities.

  • Precision Medicine

    Precision medicine aims to collect, connect, and apply vast amounts of scientific research data and information about our health – from the molecular understanding of disease to clinical, environmental, socioeconomic and mobile lifestyle data – to understand why individuals respond differently to treatments and therapies, and help guide more precise and predictive medicine worldwide.
