A Conversation with a Pioneer in Neuroscience

by Michelle Dionne

On June 12th, members of the psychology department, along with a number of distinguished guests, were treated to a very special evening with Dr. Brenda Milner—  a renowned pioneer in the area of neuropsychology.

She was visiting Ryerson to receive her 20th honorary doctorate and to address the graduating class at this year’s convocation.  During her visit, she also received a very special award from the department.  Details of the conversation with Dr. Milner will appear in the Department’s Fall 2008 Newsletter—stay tuned for more!
