The Amgen Biotech Experience (ABE) program is expanding to reach an additional 180,000 students across diverse communities around the world over the next two years. In addition to 24 existing sites across 13 countries, the hands-on laboratory experience will now be available through pilot programming in Brazil, Mexico and South Africa. From Los Angeles to Munich to Sydney, ABE has already transcended geographical borders to inspire thousands of teachers and nearly one million students since its inception. This latest expansion is made possible by additional funding of $12.4 million from the Amgen Foundation, bringing its total commitment to the program to over $50 million since 1990.
