McGill University is a public research university located in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. Founded in 1821 by royal charter granted by King George IV,[1] the university bears the name of James McGill, a Scottish merchant whose bequest in 1813 formed the university's precursor, University of McGill College (or simply, McGill College); the name was officially changed to McGill University in 1885.

McGill counts among its alumni and faculty 12 Nobel laureates[2] and 147 Rhodes Scholars,[3] both the most of any university in Canada,[2] as well as 16 billionaires, the current prime minister and two former prime ministers of Canada, two Governors General of Canada, 15 justices of the Supreme Court of Canada, at least eight foreign leaders, and more than 100 members of national legislatures. McGill alumni also include 8 Academy Award winners, at least 13 Emmy Award winners, four Pulitzer Prize winners, and 121 Olympians with over 35 Olympic medals.[4]

MK-ULTRA

The Allan Memorial Institute, which housed the psychiatric department of the Royal Victoria Hospital, and was affiliated with McGill University.

Between 1957 and 1964, McGill was home to a subproject of the Central Intelligence Agency’s (CIA) MK Ultra project. Under Dr. Ewen Cameron’s oversight, researchers at the Allan Memorial Institute conducted studies that subjected unwitting patients to high voltage electroshock therapy, weeks-long drug induced sleep, and large doses of Lysergic Acid Diethylamide (LSD).

McGill University AIDS Centre

The McGill University AIDS Centrer resides at the Lady Davis Institute at the Jewish General Hospital. Mark Wainberg, the Director of the AIDS Centre, was among the first to test the drug 3TC (Lamivudine; sold by GlaxoSmithKline) in patients stated to be with HIV. From 1998 to 2000, Wainberg served as President of the International AIDS Society, the world’s largest organization of AIDS researchers and clinicians. Wainberg was very active in trying to spread the use of AIDS-drugs in Africa and developing countries.[7][8] Wainberg called for Dr. Peter Duesberg and others who “attempt to dispel the notion that HIV is the cause of AIDS,” to be “brought up on trial,” calling such people, “perpetrators of death,” stating that he "hoped the US Constitution could be re-written to accommodate such arrests."[9] Wainberg has reported receiving grants for research and serving as a speaker for GlaxoSmithKline, Bristol-Myers Squibb, and Abbott Laboratories, and has was also a speaker for Gilead Pharmaceuticals.[10][11]
