Our annual #AmgenScholars global symposia have wrapped! It was wonderful to engage with the next-generation of researchers and innovators in science... Here are some pics from the North American symposium at @UCLA: https://t.co/DEFWw8qqMW

That's a wrap on the #AmgenScholars European Symposium. We came, we scienced and learned from each other, we punted, we dined... A great couple of days of global biotech research in Cambridge!
Thank you @AmgenFoundation and @Cambridge_Uni#science#STEMed
Day 2 of #AmgenScholars European Symposium: Prof Kathy Niakan (@Cambridge_Uni ) gives a keynote on her path in science and work on embryonic cells

Great night last night in Cambridge with @DrFran_Colucci, made better by randomly meeting an @karolinskainst Amgen scholar from 2014 as the 2024 cohort also randomly was walking by…..a 10 year generation gap but still the same excitement @ASP_GPO@AmgenFoundation
Welcome to @Cambridge_Uni#AmgenScholars
Prof. Alex Webb kicks off the day, reminding Scholars that contrary to how scientists are often depicted in films, with the lone scientist in a lab, science is a team endeavor
@Amgen@Cambridge_Uni Fascinating to see how complex the malaria parasite's genome is, especially in comparison to coronavirus genome...
That's part of why malaria has persisted as a global public health challenge for some long. -Rayner

Yes! 👇 @rayner_julian
Science is about more than discovery!
A key theme in my book on #WomeninScience and a key aspect of #scicomm...
Science depends on sharing ideas and must therefore engage people at different levels and from different perspectives.

Had the honor of hosting Elionel in the FUNR lab this summer with @MariaHTNguyen as an all star mentor. Thanks @StanfordBiosci and #AMGENscholars for your continued support of summer undergraduate research experiences. 🔬🙌🏾
Although a chemist by training, Robert Guenette has followed a simple physics principle throughout his life: forward momentum. That has led him from #AmgenScholars to grad school and then to a postdoc at Amgen, where he's now a senior scientist. Read more: https://t.co/yyXoLr2NMJ
I had a fantastic visit with the inaugural cohort of Amgen Scholars at @HowardU. Thank you, @RonSmit74002520! It’s always a pleasure to meet you and your students, and I am excited to continue building together!
An impressive panel of @Amgen staff, led by Ashley Young of @AmgenFoundation, are discussing what a day in the life of someone working in the biotech industry can look like

"Bad science communication will kill somebody"...strong but true words from @GilesYeo
Just a matter of time scales, whether in a global pandemic, whether for cancer studies, whether for climate change.
Yes! #scicomm is integral to science and health and society
