oi G4 1970 The Jane Coffin Childs Memorial Fund for Medical Research 333 Cedar Street - New Haven - Connecticut 06510 December 8, 1972 Dr. Joshua Lederberg Department of Genetics Stanford University Medical Center Stanford, California 94305 Dear Doctor Lederberg: In response to your note of December 4th, we are enclosing herewith a copy of your fellowship application dated December 7, 1945. We have looked through our folders and find no other supporting material beyond the two abstracts previously forwarded. The letters of recommendation from Dr. Rhoades and Dr. Graf mentioned in your application contain no scientific material and so were not included. In subsequent folders for the years 1946 and 1947, we have material relating to your research plans and application for a fellowship renewal. These are enclosed although I suspect that you have some of this already at hand. If there is anything else that comes to mind we will be glad to put on a search. With kind regards, Sincerely yours, XL. bela L. L. Waters, M.D. Director LLW:ef Encls.
