________________________________
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<http://www.mni.mcgill.ca/site_info/contact/> (1972-1984) and Founding Director of the BIC<http://www.bic.mni.mcgill.ca/Main/HomePage> (1984-1988).  Dr. Feindel's<http://www.behance.net/gallery/Neuro-portraits-William-Feindel/10906655> presence and contribution are greatly missed at our weekly Brain Imaging Lectures, 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.
