The Feindel Brain Imaging Lecture Series
<http://www.bic.mni.mcgill.ca/Seminars/BICLectureSeries> features informal
lectures on brain imaging presented at the Neuro <http://www.mni.mcgill.ca/>
's McConnell Brain Imaging Centre
<http://www.bic.mni.mcgill.ca/Main/HomePage> (*BIC*) by experts in the
field.
These lectures are named in honour of Dr. William Feindel
<http://publications.mcgill.ca/reporter/2014/01/dr-william-feindel-1918-2014/>
(1918-2014),
former Director of the Neuro (1972 -1984) and Founding Director of the BIC
(1984–88).  Dr. Feindel
<http://www.theglobeandmail.com/life/health-and-fitness/health/neurosurgeon-william-feindel-was-an-explorer-of-the-mind/article16764683/>'s
presence and contribution will be greatly missed at our weekly Brain
Imaging Lectures <http://www.bic.mni.mcgill.ca/Seminars/BICLectureSeries>,
where he almost always asked the final, most-germane question of the day:
one that usually bridged the clinical and research realms, and that brought
together the past, the present, and the future of brain science.

This semester, our Lecture Series is being held in conjunction with the
BIC's new Open Methods Meetups (*OMM*)
<http://www.bic.mni.mcgill.ca/Seminars/OpenMethodsMeetups>: a forum for
discussing hands-on technical issues, brainstorming problem-solving for
specific projects, and sharing personal tricks-of-the-trade. This will be a
great venue for those associated with the BIC to transfer knowledge and to
get to know one another.

Cheers!
Aki
