McMasters Annual Local Brain Bee

Thank you to everyone who attended our McMaster Annual Local Brain Bee on April 28th 2023.

Congratulations to our three winners
1. Sienna Su, Iroquois Ridge High School

High school students in the Hamilton-Halton and surrounding area from grades 9 through 12 are welcome to compete at the Hamilton local brain bee, hosted by the department of Psychology, Neuroscience & Behaviour (PNB) at McMaster University. Students will demonstrate their knowledge about the brain and neuroscience, including fascinating topics involving intelligence, memory, emotions, sensations, movement, stress, aging, sleep, addiction, and more. Participating is a valuable experience that students can add to their resume — not to mention the possibility of winning prizes and fame! Most importantly, we hope that the brain bee experience will inspire students to learn more about neuroscience and mental health and imagine themselves as tomorrow’s neuroscientists (taken from linked article) – Link to Article
