Fun fact

At 106 years old, she still maintains an office at the Montreal Neurological Institute and is considered the founder of neuropsychology.

The verdict

This appears to be a case of mistaken identity โ€” Brenda Milner is a world-renowned neuropsychologist who revolutionized our understanding of memory, not an actor. She's been working at McGill University in Montreal since 1944 and is a towering figure in Canadian science. If there's an actor by this name, they're living in the shadow of a cognitive neuroscience legend.
