Anniversary Symposium
40 Years of Finding Out Symposium

This year, the IMP celebrates 40 years of finding out. To mark this milestone, we’re hosting a special one-day anniversary symposium on Wednesday, 5 November 2025. We warmly invite IMP alumni to join us for a day of inspiring talks, reflections on four decades of discovery, and opportunities to reconnect with colleagues old and new.
