The SMDP community will cruise along San Diego Bay for an unforgettable evening aboard the Admiral Hornblower Yacht as we celebrate the 2026 SMDP Biotech program. This annual reception brings together scholars, mentors, alumni and industry partners for an evening of networking, recognition and celebration.

Scholars and mentors are already included on the guest list and do not need to RSVP. Boarding begins at 5:30pm, and the yacht will depart promptly at 6pm. Participants are encouraged to arrive on time to ensure they do not miss the departure.
