Peter Milner (13 June 1919 – 2 June 2018) was a Canadian neuroscientist. He was the husband of Dr. Brenda Milner. Born in Yorkshire, England, Milner worked at the British Air Defence Research and Development Establishment before moving to Canada in 1944. He was an electrical engineer, but became interested in neuroscience while Brenda was studying the subject at McGill University; he became a graduate student under the same supervisor as she, and later taught at McGill himself.[1] In collaboration with James Olds, he is credited with the discovery of the brain's pleasure centre in 1954.[2][3] Milner received the Gold Medal for Distinguished Lifetime Contributions to Canadian Psychology from the Canadian Psychological Association in 2005.[1] References1. ^1 {{cite news|url=https://montrealgazette.com/news/local-news/life-stories-neuroscience-pioneer-peter-milner-taught-at-mcgill|work=Montreal Gazette|author=Salim Valji|title=Life Stories: Neuroscience pioneer Peter Milner taught at McGill|date=11 June 2018}} {{authority control}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Milner, Peter}}{{neuroscientist-stub}}2. ^{{cite journal |last1=Kringelbach |first1=ML |last2=Berridge |first2=KC |title=The functional neuroanatomy of pleasure and happiness. |journal=Discovery medicine |date=June 2010 |volume=9 |issue=49 |pages=579–87 |pmid=20587348}} 3. ^{{cite book |author=Edmund S.
