Design Groups, made up of volunteer members of the UCSF at ZSFG community who will use the new Research and Academic Building, will meet with the project team to review and provide feedback on proposed design details. Each group will generate design recommendations for the ZSFG Vice Dean.

Each Design Group has a Chair and Co-Chair. The Design Group Chairs make up the Governance Group, which is co-chaired by Laurae Person and Ted Miclau.
