We hope you will join us in Montreal, a vibrant city with European charm and North American style. Montreal boasts a rich history of research in brain-behavior relationships by notable scientists such as Wilder Penfield, Donald Hebb, and Brenda Milner.

This meeting offers a full program designed to be scientifically challenging and of interest to a wide range of disciplines. Highlights include keynote addresses by:

• Russell Bauer- INS President: Neuropsychology in the Era of Translational Neuroscience
• Brenda Milner- Birch Lecture: Memory: Looking Back and Looking Forward
• Marilyn Jones-Gotman: Hemispheric Differences in Learning and Memory: Insights from Deficit Patterns and from Functional Neuroimaging
• Morris Moscovitch: The Neuropsychology and Cognitive Neuroscience of Episodic Memory: Past, Present, and Future
• Michael Petrides: Fronto-Parietal Interactions in Working Memory: Monitoring versus Manipulation
• Donald Stuss: Social Cognition and the Frontal Lobes: Amazing What Patients Can Teach You if You Just Listen, Observe, Think, and Measure
