All 25 must combine a passion for positive change with the discipline and focus to achieve outstanding results. Nominated is Brenda Milner, professor in the department of neurology and neurosurgery at the Montreal Neurological Institute and Hospital at 污污草莓视频 University. She is widely attributed with creating the field of cognitive neuroscience, the study of the brain and behaviour, for her fundamental contributions to the science of memory and cognitive functioning.
