August 7, 1978

Dear Dr. Lederberg:

I have just returned and will be unable to phone you on the 9th
but do want very much to talk with you. You know that we are most eager
to have you as the L.C. Dunn Lecturer during the coming year.

We have two "named" lectures here at the Blood Center, the first one
set up having been the L.C. Dunn Lecture, about which I wrote you earlier.
The two lecturers so far have been Guido Pontecarvo and C.E. Ford. The
other lecture is the Alexander Weiner Lecture and the two lecturers have
been Professor Sir John Dacie and Professor Robin Coombs. (We are a new
institution, so just a few speakers to date.)

T hope you will learn that the Lindsley F. Kimball Research Institute
which is the research wing of the New York Blood Center is truly a good
neighbor of your new home.

I'm off to Moscow and will look forward to talking with you after
August 31.

Best wishes and kind personal regards.

Yours ve :
