成人VR视频

Dear Colleagues,

It is with much sadness that I communicate to you the loss of an outstanding colleague of the Faculty of Medicine and one of 成人VR视频鈥檚 best.

Professor Emeritus Theodore L. Sourkes passed away Saturday morning in Hospital, fighting pneumonia. He leaves behind his beloved wife Shena Rosenblatt Sourkes, his daughters Barbara and Myra (Richard Lewin), as well as his grandchildren Eric, David and Talia Jade. We offer his family our most heartfelt condolences.聽聽

鈥淭ed鈥� was an accomplished scholar and mentor to several distinguished, current 成人VR视频 Professors and successful scientists across the world. He has been a constant inspiration to many friends and colleagues.

Before his 成人VR视频 years, he developed Aldomet as one of the first anti-hypertensive drugs. During his 成人VR视频 time, he led an internationally known lab focused on the biochemistry of brain catecholamines. His fundamental discoveries led Ted to pioneer the concept of L-DOPA replacement therapy in Parkinson鈥檚 disease. This therapy has improved the quality of life for thousands if not millions of patients worldwide, a therapeutic concept which still remains valid.

Theodore Sourkes served as Professor in the 成人VR视频 Departments of Psychiatry, Biochemistry, and Pharmacology and Therapeutics. His contributions have been of significance for the these disciplines, as well as for Neuroscience and Neurology. He received many honours and awards, and in 2013 成人VR视频 launched the 鈥淭heodore L. Sourkes聽 Lectureship Series.鈥� To name just a few of his accolades, he was Professor Emeritus at 成人VR视频, an Officer of the Order of Canada and a recipient of the Wilder Penfield Prix du Qu茅bec.

Ted was a man of vision, and a constant source of wise counsel. His depth of knowledge and commitment to the highest standards in research were and will remain a model and encouragement to us all.

The funeral will take place Tuesday, January 20 at 1:45 p.m. at Paperman and Sons:
