Introductory Brain Bee Training camp

[Biology Olympiads Study group]

Biolympiads.com is excited to announce that we will be running a Brain Bee training camp for beginners. This program consists of 13 weeks of intensive training to prepare students for the Brain Bee competition exams.

The International Brain Bee was founded in 1999 and is the world-wide neuroscience competition for high school students. Directed by founder Dr. Norbert Myslinski, the Brain Bee motivates students to learn about the brain, captures their imaginations, and inspires them to pursue neuroscience careers to help treat and find cures for neurological and psychological disorders.

Currently, more than 60 nations and 175 chapters are engaged in coordinating Brain Bee programs around the world, and this number is rapidly increasing. About 50,000 students participate across all six continents every year, and more than 600 neuroscientists have been involved with organizing and judging the events. 

The Brain Bee competition is organized on 3 levels: local, national, and international. Local scientific institutions are licensed by the International Brain Bee (IBB) to carry out city-wide or regional events, engaging students from 14-19 years of age. The first-place prize winners are granted the opportunity to compete at the national level. The National Champions are, in turn, invited to represent their country at the annual International Brain Bee competition, which is hosted by different neuroscience organizations during an international conference.

 

The goal of the Brain Bee Training Program is to prepare highly motivated students to compete in the Brain Bee competition in 2022. The students will follow an intensive curriculum prepared by experienced Brain Bee coaches.  

 

Duration: 13 weeks (26 lessons)

Schedule: 1 hr on Saturdays and 1 hr on Sundays (2 hrs per week) at 11 am - 12 pm EST

Course cost: $900

Group size: 5-10 students

Course start date: TBD

Over the course of 13 weeks, the course will cover all chapters from Brain Facts book. The last 2 weeks of the training camp will be allocated to intensive neuroanatomy, neurohistology and patient diagnosis training. The course also includes 2 Mock Brain Bee exams.  

All course participants will be able to access weekly quizzes, handouts and lecture presentations on Schoology.
