What is the Global Aspiring Medic Conference (GAMC) about?
The Global Aspiring Medic Conference (GAMC) is a one-day conference held in Hong Kong. The conference will provide a mind-stimulating platform for students to gain insight into the many sectors of the medical industry, including Medicine, Biomedical Science, Nursing, and Psychology and the various academic pathways to achieve success in these fields.
Through clinical skills workshops and illuminating lectures, we hope this conference will provide students with the necessary information and inspiration to help with their decision making and planning in both their studies and careers.
Who can attend the GAMC?
GAMC is open to students (in rising F.4 or Y11 and above) across Asia and invitations will be extended to students in Hong Kong, Singapore, Malaysia and China. Unfortunately, students in F.3 or Y10 and below are not allowed to attend. On the day, GAMC organizers will ask for proof of age.
What is included in the registration fee?
The registration fee covers entry to all events listed under the Schedule, including Keynote Forums and Clinical Lectures by medical academics and professionals. This is a non-profit event and all proceeds will go towards underwriting administrative fees.
What is the refund policy?
Registration fees are non-refundable. Should registered students not turn up for the event, there will unfortunately be no refund.
