BrainSTEM has existed in various forms for over a decade, with generous funding from the Terrence and Terri Gee Apprenticeship Endowment Fund and the National Science Foundation.
We also thank the parents of Jennifer Joyce Young, Mike and Marina Joyce. Jennifer was a former Rice faculty member and BrainSTEM mentor, who tragically passed in 2012. Her parents have graciously given a donation to continue the work that Jennifer was so passionate about.
