Participate in a Brain Bee
Interested in expanding your outreach? Participate in a Brain Bee as a judge, coach, mentor, or volunteer. Find a Brain Bee near you or create a Brain Bee in your community.
The Brain Bee is a neuroscience competition for secondary school students that aims to motivate them to learn about the brain, capture their imaginations, and inspire them to pursue careers in biomedical research. Founder Norbert Myslinski of the University of Maryland directs the global contest.
Students compete locally, feeding into national and then international competition. The Society for Neuroscience hosts the DC Brain Bee and is a sponsor of the U.S. National and International Brain Bees. SfN arranges a scientific laboratory internship for the U.S. national and international winners.
