  • The Creation of Neuroscience
    The Creation of Neuroscience The Society for Neuroscience and the Quest for Disciplinary Unity 1969-1995 Introduction rom the molecular biology of a single neuron to the breathtakingly complex circuitry of the entire human nervous system, our understanding of the brain and how it works has undergone radical F changes over the past century. These advances have brought us tantalizingly closer to genu- inely mechanistic and scientifically rigorous explanations of how the brain’s roughly 100 billion neurons, interacting through trillions of synaptic connections, function both as single units and as larger ensem- bles. The professional field of neuroscience, in keeping pace with these important scientific develop- ments, has dramatically reshaped the organization of biological sciences across the globe over the last 50 years. Much like physics during its dominant era in the 1950s and 1960s, neuroscience has become the leading scientific discipline with regard to funding, numbers of scientists, and numbers of trainees. Furthermore, neuroscience as fact, explanation, and myth has just as dramatically redrawn our cultural landscape and redefined how Western popular culture understands who we are as individuals. In the 1950s, especially in the United States, Freud and his successors stood at the center of all cultural expla- nations for psychological suffering. In the new millennium, we perceive such suffering as erupting no longer from a repressed unconscious but, instead, from a pathophysiology rooted in and caused by brain abnormalities and dysfunctions. Indeed, the normal as well as the pathological have become thoroughly neurobiological in the last several decades. In the process, entirely new vistas have opened up in fields ranging from neuroeconomics and neurophilosophy to consumer products, as exemplified by an entire line of soft drinks advertised as offering “neuro” benefits.

He began his university education studying philosophy and psychology, receiving his B.A. at Reed College in Portland, Oregon in 1927, and his M.A. at the University of Oregon in Eugene in 1929. With a burgeoning interest in the human brain in relation to the mind and behaviour, Jasper completed his Ph.D. in psychology at the University of Iowa in 1931. At this time he married Constance Cleaver, with whom he had a daughter, Marilyn. His thesis work from Iowa was recognized by an appointment as National Research Council Foreign Fellow, leading to two years of study at the Sorbonne in Paris, from 1931-32, with Alexandre and Andrée Monnier and Louis Lapicque. In 1932, a grant from the Rockefeller Foundation allowed him to establish an EEG laboratory at Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island, where he carried out pioneering EEG work and published the first paper in the United States on the human EEG in Science in 1935.

  • The Collision of Frontal Lobe Theory and Psychosurgery at the 1935 International Neurological Congress in London
    NEUROSURGICAL FOCUS Neurosurg Focus 43 (3):E4, 2017 The early argument for prefrontal leucotomy: the collision of frontal lobe theory and psychosurgery at the 1935 International Neurological Congress in London Lillian B. Boettcher, BA, and Sarah T. Menacho, MD Department of Neurosurgery, Clinical Neurosciences Center, University of Utah, Salt Lake City, Utah The pathophysiology of mental illness and its relationship to the frontal lobe were subjects of immense interest in the latter half of the 19th century. Numerous studies emerged during this time on cortical localization and frontal lobe theory, drawing upon various ideas from neurology and psychiatry. Reflecting the intense interest in this region of the brain, the 1935 International Neurological Congress in London hosted a special session on the frontal lobe. Among other presentations, Yale physiologists John Fulton and Carlyle Jacobsen presented a study on frontal lobectomy in primates, and neurologist Richard Brickner presented a case of frontal ablation for olfactory meningioma performed by the Johns Hopkins neurosurgeon Walter Dandy. Both occurrences are said to have influenced Portuguese neurologist Egas Moniz (1874–1955) to commence performing leucotomies on patients beginning in late 1935. Here the authors review the relevant events related to frontal lobe theory leading up to the 1935 Neurological Congress as well as the extent of this meeting’s role in the genesis of the modern era of psychosurgery. https://thejns.org/doi/abs/10.3171/2017.6.FOCUS17249 KEY WORDS leucotomy; psychosurgery; frontal lobe N 1936, Egas Moniz published his first report on per- Neurological Congress in London in 1935.

  • History 5 - Fire in the Medical Buildings to Selye
    This chapter is part of a record of the history of the Department of Anatomy and Cell Biology at McGill University written by Emeritus Professor, Dr. Gary Bennett, and completed in 2016. The entire history can be accessed at www.mcgill.ca/anatomy/about-us/history/written-history. History 5 - Fire in the Medical Buildings to Selye Fire in the Medical Buildings (1907) At the beginning of the 20th century, the infrastructure of McGill University become very impressive. Thanks to generous benefactors such as MacDonald, Molson and Lord Strathcona (now the University Chancellor), several new buildings had been constructed. In addition to the Arts Building and Dawson Hall, at the top of University Drive, there was the magnificent Redpath Museum to the west, and beyond this the new Redpath Library. To the east were the new Engineering, Chemistry and Physics Buildings. North of these was the new, greatly expanded, Medical Building, and finally, up the hill was the glorious new Royal Victoria Hospital Frost 2:4. In 1907, however, disaster struck! A fire of unknown origin destroyed much of the precious new Medical Building Hanaway 2: 64-66. The central portion was completely gutted and its roof and cupolas collapsed. The original lower portion was also damaged beyond repair. Only the northern-most Molson Extension survived to be reutilized. The Anatomy museum was completely destroyed, along with all the specimens that Shepherd had collected over 30 years! The pathology museum also suffered major losses, but most of the Osler Collection, including the wonderful Holmes heart, was saved by the heroic efforts of Maude Abbott and the medical students.

    HISTORICAL VIGNETTE J Neurosurg 122:449–452, 2015 William H. Feindel (1918–2014) Richard Leblanc, MSc, MD, FRCSC,1 and Mark C. Preul, MD2 1Department of Neurology and Neurosurgery, Montreal Neurological Institute and Hospital, McGill University, Montreal, Quebec, Canada; and 2Division of Neurological Surgery, Barrow Neurological Institute, St. Joseph’s Hospital and Medical Center, Phoenix, Arizona William Howard Feindel (1918–2014) was one of the world’s most distinguished neurosurgeons and a brilliant neurosci- entist. As the Montreal Neurological Institute’s third director, having succeeded Theodore Rasmussen and Wilder Pen- field, he proved to be a visionary medical and scientific administrator. His keen interests in epilepsy and brain imaging were enhanced by a passion for medical history. Students and young people invariably gravitated to Dr. Feindel; he was a kind, patient, thoughtful, intelligent, and caring mentor who was never too busy for them. A pioneer in his own right, Dr. Feindel linked our modern neurosurgical world with the legacy of the first generations of important neurosurgeons and neuroscientists. http://thejns.org/doi/abs/10.3171/2014.10.JNS14263 KEY WORDS history of neurosurgery; William H.

  • American Osler Society
    49th Annual Meeting of the American Osler Society Sir William Osler, quoting Leigh Hunt, “Abou Ben Adhem” Sunday, May 12th – Wednesday May 15th, 2019 Hotel Omni Mont-Royal Montréal, Canada Hotel Omni Mont-Royal 49th Annual Meeting of the AMERICAN OSLER SOCIETY Sunday, May 12th – Wednesday, May 15th, 2019 Hotel Omni Mont-Royal Montréal, Canada Credit: Karen Koshof The Osler Niche contains the ashes of Sir William Osler and Lady Osler, as well as those of Osler’s dear cousin and first Librarian of the Osler Library, W.W. Francis. The Niche was designed with Osler’s wishes in mind. Its realization was not far off the vision imagined by Osler’s alter ego Egerton Yorrick Davis in “Burrowings of a Bookworm”: I like to think of my few books in an alcove of a fire-proof library in some institution that I love; at the end of the alcove an open fire-place and a few easy chairs, and on the mantelpiece an urn with my ashes and my bust or portrait through which my astral self, like the Bishop at St. Praxed’s, could peek at the books I have loved, and enjoy the delight with which kindred souls still in the flesh would handle them. Course Objectives Upon conclusion of this program, participants should be able to: Describe new research findings in the history of medicine. Outline the evolution of medicine in a particular disease. List professional contributions made by others in medicine. Intended Audience The target audience includes physicians and others interested in Osler, medical history and any of the medically oriented humanities who research and write on a range of issues.
