The International Brain Bee was founded in 1998 by 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.

In Ukraine Brain Bee has started in 2012 as a part of the National Biological Olympiad held by the Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine. In 2016 it became a standalone event. It is organized in two stages. The preliminary test is organized on the Internet and every student can freely participate. Best students are invited to the final competition. The winner represents Ukraine in the International competition.

1. Rachel Patel, USA.
2. Yu Cheng Lim, Malaysia.
3. Peter Susanto, Australia.
4. Ostap Shyika, Ukraine.
5. Muhammad Wattad, Israel.

P.S. Ostap Shyika is a graduate of Ivano-Frankivsk Lyceum No. 23 named after Roman Huryk. For his academic achievements Ostap was a scholarship holder of the President of Ukraine, as well as Ivano-Frankivsk city and regional councils.
