DESCRIPTION:The Feindel Brain and Mind Seminar Series will advance the visi
 on of Dr. William Feindel (1918–2014)\, Former Director of the Neuro (1972
 –1984)\, to constantly bridge the clinical and research realms. The talks 
 will highlight the latest advances and discoveries in neuropsychology\, co
 gnitive neuroscience\, and neuroimaging.\n\nSpeakers will include scientis
 ts from across The Neuro\, as well as colleagues and collaborators locally
  and from around the world. The series is intended to provide a virtual fo
 rum for scientists and trainees to continue to foster interdisciplinary ex
 changes on the mechanisms\, diagnosis and treatment of brain and cognitive
  disorders.\n\n\nRegister for In-Person\n\nTo watch online\, click here\n
 \nHost: Udunna Anazodo\n\n\nFrom Diversity to Discovery CPHI Data Flows Th
 rough the PCGL\n\nAbstract: The Canadian Precision Health Initiative (CPHI
 ) is creating a national resource of diverse whole-genome data linked to c
 linical and metadata. This session will introduce the CPHI portfolio\, out
 line governance pillars ensuring reusability and trust\, and explain how d
 ata are curated and accessed via the Pan‑Canadian Genome Library (PCGL) in
  a secure environment. Discussions about applications from neurogenetics a
 nd other fields will show how this system supports research and accelerate
 s discoveries\, therefore establishing the value of such national assets.
