These three graduate students in the University of Iowa Neuroscience Program were the brains and brawn behind the Iowa 2001 Kids Judge! Neuroscience Fairs. 37: Beth Turner (smiling with balloons over her head), Graduate Student in the University of Iowa Neuroscience Program leads the group in learning about memory.
