The Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität (LMU) München has been selected as a host university for the Amgen Scholars Europe Programme which is to start next summer. The international initiative is a $ 2.5 million, two-year programme, funded by a grant from the Amgen Foundation, one of the largest biotechnology companies in the US. It offers an intensive and high-profile summer research programme to students pursuing a graduate degree and a career in science. The other two host universities of the programme will be the University of Cambridge in the United Kingdom and Karolinska Institutet in Sweden. The first summer research programme will take place from July to September 2009, bringing together students recruited from all over Europe. Research projects, scientific seminars and other networking events at LMU will centre on the fields of biochemistry, biopsychology as well as structural, molecular, cell and developmental biology, neurobiology, computational neuroscience, and physiological sciences.
