A MESSAGE FROM THE FUTURE
To: The 2023 USA Chapter Brain Bee Winners
From: Dr. Norbert
Myslinski,
Founder of the International Brain Bee
Congratulations on winning your USA Chapter Brain Bees, and taking up the challenge of representing your school and family at the 2023 USA National Championship in California, hosted by the University of California, Irvine. You have a lot to be proud of and to look forward to in the decades to come. The promise of neuroscience is real, and the future of neuroscience will be revolutionary I know because I lived through it I am writing you this message in the year 2073, at the USA National Brain Bee Championship. Let me tell you what has been happening for the last 50 years.
There are now 203 American cities participating in the USA Brain Bee including some new cities you never heard of because in your time they have not been created yet. We have added more parts to the competition, including the Brain in Space, Robotic Brains and Artificial Intelligence, Personalized Brain Medicine, Enhanced Cognitive Methods, Advanced Brain Mapping Techniques, Brain Organoids, and Genetic Engineering In addition, a highlight of the year was the placing of the Brain Bee flag on Mars.
Since 2023, three Brain Bee winners were awarded separate Nobel Prizes for their work on brain chips that prevent epileptic seizures, retinal implants, and cures for brain cancer and chronic pain; and the International Brain Bee itself won the Nobel Peace Prize for fostering world-wide cooperation using social neuroscience to reduce pain and suffering in the world.
