Our Programmes

Get Involved!

Chiasma usually kicks off the year with a Launch event in March.

It brings together students and industry members interested in Chiasma to hear from inspirational speakers and find out details about the planned Chiasma programmes for the year.

It connects the audience of like minded students and professionals in STEM and provides an opportunity for them to network over drinks and nibbles.

However due to the COVID-19 pandemic, for 2020 we will be going for a virtual launch with a video. Watch this space!

Chiasma Connect is a mentoring programme which connects high calibre students with industry professionals.
