With the inauguration of the annual Dr. Ernest Seidman Award for IBD Excellence, the 2020 virtual fundraiser was a true success. Bringing in close to $240,00, the evening was certainly a memorable one, not only for the amazing mind-reading abilities of mentalist Oz Pearlman, but the dedication of the evening to the incredible Dr. Seidman.

NEXT THURSDAY! "Laugh Your Butt Off (At Home!)", an evening honouring Dr. Ernest Seidman and featuring world-renowned mentalist Oz Pearlman. Join us on zoom with your goodie box of cocktails and desserts and get ready for some major mind reading. All funds go towards the IBD clinics at the Montreal General, Montreal Children's, and Jewish General Hospitals. Tickets still available & donations of any amount are greatly appreciated. ... https://myevent.com/mcgillibd

Mike has his mind read big time). mcgill.ca/x/4zL
