Amgen European Symposium

The Amgen European Symposium takes place at the end of the summer programme. All scholars from the five different European Amgen Scholars Programme institutions attend the symposium: LMU, ETH Zurich, Institut Pasteur, Karolinska Institutet and University of Cambridge. 

The event comprises talks from Cambridge academics, industry speakers and Amgen Scholars Programme alumni. A signature element of the symposium schedule are the poster sessions - each institution's scholars will present their posters and share their summer projects with the other scholars. All meals are provided, including a formal dinner.
