Joshua Lederberg, Ph.D.

Chairman, Department of Genetics
Stanford University School of Medicine
Palo Alto, California

Dear Dr. Lederberg:

According to the February newsletter from Rockefeller
University, you have authored a series of columns aimed at
lay audiences, on the social impact of scientific programs.
How may I obtain copies of these writings?

At The Medical Foundation we are trying to build local
awareness and understanding of the relationship of research
to health and medicine. Unfortunately very few scientists
have either the time or the inclination to write about
these matters for audiences of non-scientists. This is why
we are particularly interested in seeing what you have
written.

Please advise me how we can obtain copies of these
articles. If you have any available, please send them to
me along with an invoice for any charges. I am enclosing
our most recent annual report for .our information.

Thank you.
Cordially,
Michael Valentine
