The Brain Sciences Scholarship was created in 1997 to recognize the outstanding academic achievements of students, involved in brain research, at the University of Minnesota and Brain Sciences Center. The award was created by the American Legion family's Brain Science Foundation, who presents it, each year, to aide in the educational pursuits of these exceptional students.
