Dear Professor Lederberg,

I was delighted and honoured to learn from Professor
Harold Simon that you have agreed to serve on the Scientific
Advisory Committee of our Medical School. I hope that you
have by now received the letter from the President of the
Technion officially asking you to serve on the committee.

I look forward eagerly to meeting with you in order to
discuss our plans and great hopes for the future, and to receive
your help and:.advice in building a research institute worthy
of the name.

Within the coming weeks a special report will be sent
to you which will give full information on the research at
present being carried out in basic, clinical and experimental
medicine in our medical school. In the meantime may I send Z.
you a booklet containing general information on our school,
which we believe is a unique institution in the world of today.

Once again my heartfelt thanks and gratitude for your
willingness to be of help to us. Should you have any questions
you wish to clarify, please do not hesitate to write to me.

Sincerely yours,
David Barzilai, M.D.
Professor of Medicine
