Photos from our first middle school Girls With Nerve camp. We had 14 girls for a week, and as you can see we did some pretty cool stuff! Kinesiology IUSPH Indiana University School of Public Health-Bloomington IU Center of Excellence for Women in Technology - CEWiT

Girls With Nerve is a free, week-long day camp aimed at empowering teen girls to explore neuroscience. This year we had 14 middle school campers for the week of July 9-13. Thanks to all the IU faculty and student volunteers, and high school volunteers from last year, who made our first middle school camp a success! And thanks to the National Science Foundation and the IU Women's Philanthropy Leadership Council for their support. Photo credit: Jasmine Mirdamadi, Courtney Seigel.
