You're really the CEO of the system.
Were you nervous? I mean, when they called you and said, you've got the job, was there a moment where you thought, have I bit off more than I can chew? This is a huge responsibility.
Because you're an outsider, you were an alum, but you weren't coming up through the ranks as the CEO of the hospital or something.
So tell me about the budget of UCSF. Because it's a state school, presumably California provides what fraction of it?
So what's the benefit of being a UC?
So in that sense, you and Stanford aren't that far apart.
Show me the P&L on those things there. So NIH is bringing in how much? Oh, gosh. Percentage-wise, roughly.
A third of the revenue for general operations is coming out of the NIH overhead. And then clinical revenue.
Okay. And then philanthropy is some direct, some into the endowment where you're living off the interest.
And that's basically what your revenue streams are, those four things.
Well, especially because you don't have undergrads, right?
I didn't even apply to UCSF, by the way, because I mean, I was not in California when I was applying to medical school. I was told it was such a great medical school that I was like, there's no way I'm going to get in as a non-Californian. So I didn't even apply.
I did.
Because there's like seven of you, right? There's seven of us.
Americans are, hands down, the most generous people in the world. I think that's a demonstrable fact.
I'm sure that you must deserve some of the credit for that. I don't think it's just that a bunch of people in the Bay Area came into money at that period of time. What was the approach you took towards philanthropy and how did you reach donors that maybe previously hadn't been involved in UCSF? Because again, one of the things that's working against you is you don't have an undergraduate.
So Stanford has a big advantage over you in which you've got a lot of people that are coming through doing engineering degrees, doing CS degrees who are going on to create enormous enterprises. Anyone who's an alum of UCSF went to graduate school there. There's no business school. There's no law school. So you're missing out on a lot of this.
Yes.
Yes.
What percentage of your time was spent externally versus internally?
