The Pre-Amp Fellowship in 2024
- The Pre-Amp Fellowship is an annual initiative designed to bring together young scientists from a diverse range of fields of study.
- The Fellowship is divided into three one-month cycles where participants are divided into groups, assigned a topic to focus on, and given the opportunity to work alongside early-stage portfolio companies.
- The program challenges scientists to think creatively, refine ideas, and think about commercial viability.
- An important aspect is to challenge feasibility from a business perspective, considering how widely applicable ideas are, how quickly they can come to fruition, and whether or not they have the potential to result in a meaningful multi-billion-dollar business.
- Since it was launched in 2021, 28 scientists have participated in the Pre-Amp Fellowship, and in many cases, it has helped pave the way to their first jobs and built long-term professional relationships.
- An in-person session is held each year that brings the entire group together for meetings, workshops, and fireside chats.
- Participants have the chance to drive strategic analyses, learn about the critical questions that arise, and establish strong working relationships.
- The program demands resilience and the ability to embrace failure as part of an iterative process.
- The organizers are already hard at work preparing for the 2025 Fellowship and encourage talented scientists to apply.
- Amplitude Ventures is the venture capital firm behind the initiative, investing in leading precision medicine companies using their unique growth model and evidence-based approach.
