Krieger Professor of Medicine Director, Division of Endocrinology The Mount Sinai Medical Center One Gustave L. Levy Place New York, New York 10029 Dear Dorothy: Thank you for your notes of June 9th about various people: I will try to put them to good use. About indexes of your own involvement in clinical versus other forms of research (and this is perhaps a silly perspective altogether) I think the question might be put: how many bed days a year in a clinical research center would be required for and justified by your cur- rent pattern of research activity, or prospectively if it were to be optimally matched to your own intrinsic interests and the scientific challenges of the field? Yours sincerely, Joshua Lederberg
