Five high school students nationwide are annually recognized by the Child Mind Institute for their exceptional interest and achievement in psychology, neuroscience or biomedical engineering.

Students who receive a Rising Scientist Award will be given a $2,000 scholarship for college, an opportunity to present their research at a professional symposium and recognition at a national awards ceremony.

Nominations are due June 9 and require four, under-300-word narratives and the student’s transcripts. Learn more and nominate a student here.
