Celebrating 40 Years of Vision: The McConnell Brain Imaging Centre

Forty years ago, Dr. William Feindel had a groundbreaking vision to visualize the unseen pathology of the central nervous system, paving the way for enhanced care for patients with neurological conditions. This vision led to the establishment of the McConnell Brain Imaging Centre (BIC) at the Montreal Neurological Institute, Â鶹AV.

To commemorate this significant milestone, we are delighted to announce three days of events:

  • Scientific Day on November 19, 2024 at the Jeanne Timmins Amphitheatre, The Neuro. Lectures from 08:00 - 18:30.
