Dear Dr. Lederberg:

Each year the University of Florida College of Medicine sponsors a series
of guest lecturers as part of our cancer training program. We would like
to have you come to Gainesville as one of our guest speakers during the
coming fall or spring semester.

It has been the pattern to ask the guest to give an evening lecture, the
audience for which includes faculty and students in the fields of Micro-
biology, Chemistry, Genetics etc., as well as from the Medical School.
In addition, many give an informal seminar within a Department, having
to do with some of their recent work.

Our grant from the National Cancer Institute enables us to provide trans-
portation and all expenses of the visit as well as a modest honorarium of
$100.00.

We would, of course, like for you to speak on some aspect of your work
in the field of microbial genetics. The evening lecture should be fairly
general in scope and treatmem.

We would be delighted if you could accept this invitation and believe that
you may find some of the things we are doing in our new Medical School
interesting.

We would greatly appreciate hearing from you in the near future so that
a schedule for this program may be set. It would be desirable that you
furnish us with alternative dates on this occasion.

Ca ekann Eeeret
Josh&é L. Edwards, M.D.

Professor and Chairman
Department of Pathology
