      Brain. An Introduction for Young Students by The British Neuroscience Association (BNA) and
      European Dana Alliance for the Brain (EDAB). They then complete an on-line quiz in their
      schools under exam conditions to determine their knowledge and understanding of the
      structure and function of the brain 14 - 20 March 2016
