We are excited to announce this year’s Crick-Partner University student symposium will occur on the 8th July 2024.

This student-led symposium is a highlight of the academic year for students from across each of the partner universities and the Crick. You will hear about the fascinating research conducted by students from UCL, Imperial, King’s, and the Crick, presented in the form of a short talk or poster.

In addition to learning about the range of science occurring across the Universities and the Crick, the symposium offers a fantastic opportunity to network with like-minded students and discuss your own science with your peers.

This year we will have focus panels on equity, diversity, and inclusion (EDI) in academia and an exciting keynote lecture from Professor Sonia Antoranz Contera from the University of Oxford. Her research focuses on physics at the interface of biology, nanotechnology, and information processing. There will be plenty of refreshments throughout the day and into the evening to keep you energised, and the symposium will finish off with a social networking event.

There are prizes available for presenters:

£150 prizes for best talk and best poster.

£50 prizes for best talk and poster in each year group.

When you submit an abstract you are automatically entered in a raffle to win a £50 voucher.
