Thing going. So, once the opportunity was here, then, we knew what to do with it. First of all, since this site was rather removed from the then nerve center of the campus, we knew that in one fell swoop we would have to create a Critical Mass science, featuring some of our most creative and adventuresome scientists and second, we would have to create the opportunity to do new things and in new ways. And i think that it is generally agreed that we have succeeded at both. Within a year of opening the first building, genentech was filled with a Cohesive Community with creative scientists who organized themselves in ways that would create and facility new alliances across disciplinary boundaries. And second, we created the opportunity to do new things in new ways.

It wasnt just one thing alone, it was a combination of many things. And investing in infrastructure at mission bay was an enormous task. Something that we had to do, public, privately because we did not have all of the money and we had to get rid of one of my favorite institutions the golfing range.
