Denison University is calling for smart and studious high-school scholars, ages 13-19, to register for the annual Central Ohio Brain Bee, at Denison on Saturday, Feb. 5. The Brain Bee is a question and answer competition that tests students’ knowledge of neuroscience, brain physiology and chemistry, and how the brain is involved in various behaviors and disorders. For more information, or to register students, contact Frank Hassebrock, associate professor of psychology, at 740-587-6677 or e-mail at hassebrock@denison.edu. There is no cost to participate but advanced registration of participants is required.
The Brain Bee competition is conducted by the neuroscience faculty and student members of Neuroscience Education and Research at Denison (NERD). Each participant earns a free one-year family membership to the Works Museum in Newark, as well as free T-shirts for attending family members. Students compete to earn cash prizes, the Brain Bee trophy, the opportunity to go to the National Brain Bee, and money for a neuroscience charity.
