Construction is scheduled to begin in May 2002 and expected to be complete by January 2004.

UCSF plans to construct a 60,000 SF medical education and facility center in downtown Fresno that will house all residents, medical faculty and staff. The center will feature telemedicine and various methods of standardized patient care, in addition to an outdoor, wireless amphitheatre.
