Dear Jeffrey,
I wanted to update you on our placebo initiative at Harvard. I've been asked to start a Harvard-wide Program in Placebo Studies which will be hosted at the Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center. It will do basic, clinical and social science research as well as scholarly work in placebo studies. We are situated in all the major teaching hospitals at Harvard and have already drawn commitments from over 20 faculty. Anne Harrington will be joining us. We recently published an physiological study of placebo in the New England Journal of Medicine and a theoretical paper in Philosophic Transactions of the Roy Soc B. (I'm attaching 44). We anticipate making some major breakthroughs in genetic of placebo effects (we're submitting our findings in the next days) and have major studies in the pipeline. We're hoping that
this program will establish Placebo Studies
as a important component of medical
research internationally. Here is our new
website:
www.programinplacebostudies.org. Let
me know if this is of any interest for you.
Sincerely,
Ted

Woody, Thank you for the
introduction.
Jeffrey, Whenever you'd like
to talk....i talk placebo most of
the timc....tell me.
All my work and the work of
my laboratory is about placebo
multi-discplinary effects clinical and and approach: we social use science a basic,
and
collaborate with the
humanities (history, ethics,
etc.)
We published in these areas
and have some exciting studies
in the pipeline.
We can start with a phone call
or whatever.
Your call.

Jeffrey and Ted,
This is an introduction of the two of you to each other. I think
you will have a
very stimulating,
exciting dialogue. I
have spoken with
each of you about
the other.
Jeffrey,
Ted Kaptchuk is a deeply philosophical scientist. Placebo
research has been
his special interest
for a decade (and
Chinese Medicine
before that--in
addition I am sure
to many others).
He is actually in
the process now of
setting up a
placebo research
center at Harvard--
where he has been
on the faculty for >
10 years,
principally affiliated
with their Osher
Center for
Research
in Complementary
and Alternative
Medicine. He wrote
a wonderful
book, The Web
That Has No
Weaver, about trad
Chinese medicine,
as the 2nd
practitioner to visit
China after the
thaw in the 70s. He
can send you
studies, etc. if you
would like.
Ted,
Jeffrey is a very successful investor. But the reason I am
recommending he
talk with you is
that he has a
brilliant scientific
mind, is very
interested in
research and
recently he has
taken a keen
interest in some far-
reaching questions
about the
implications of the
placebo
response. (partly
stemming out of
his surprise that i
would believe in
and use
homeopathy)
I think the two of you will enjoy each other's minds, and
possibly come up
with some very
interesting ideas
for future research.
