Placebo

I tried calling you on November 28. No answer.

Our work is getting enormous media attention. (Attached is an article in this week's New Yorker. I wished it had focused more on our science and less on me. We expect coverage by "60 Minutes" in January.)

This is a critical time to develop our scientific and institutional roots at Harvard. We're looking for partners to help move our research along. Would there be another time you could talk by telephone?

Is there a good time to check-in with you to get your feedback on the budget we sent you two weeks ago and on what issues would interest you in developing a partnership with our efforts in placebo studies? We're trying to think bot scientifically and strategically. Our team has all the intellectual and infrastructure resources of Harvard University and any input would be appreciated.

Best,

Im in africa until the 27th

Hi Jeff,

EFTA00660047

I'm around Monday, Martin Luther King day until 3pm. Is that a good day for a phone conversation?

Alternatively, as the phone hasn't been too successful, should we meet in person? When are you in Cambridge next?

ped martin novak

Jeffrey, I think it may be a good idea to set up a time to meet on April 12 in Cambridge. As a location, I can offer my home office near Harvard Sq, my office at the medical school, or any tea shop in the area. Or do you have another preference? Suggest a time as I'm flexible that day. ted Ted J. Kaptchuk

Hi Jeff,

It was a pleasure to sit in the hot seat and talk about placebos. An impressive group of people. Is there a good time to have a conversation on developing a partnership to advance scientific knowledge of placebo?
