Jeffrey and Ted,

This is an introduction of the two of you to eac= other. I think you will have a very stimulating, exciting dialogue. I hav= spoken with each of you about the other.

## Jeffrey,

Ted=Kaptchuk is a deeply philosophical scientist. Placebo research has been hi= special interest for a decade (and Chinese Medicine before that--in addit=on I am sure to many others). He is actually in the process now of setting=up a placebo research center at Harvard--where he has been on the faculty =or > 10 years, principally affiliated with their Osher Center for Res=arch in Complementary and Alternative Medicine. He wrote a wonderful boo=, The Web That Has No Weaver, about trad Chinese med=cine, as the 2nd practitioner to visit China after the thaw in the 70s. He=can send you studies, etc. if you would like.

## Ted,

Jeffrey is a very successful investor. But the reason=l am recommending he talk with you is that far-reaching he has a brilliant questions scientifi= about the mind, implications is very interested of the placebo in research =esponse. and recently (partly he stemming has taken out a of keen his int=rest surprise in that some i would believe in an= use homeopathy)

I think the two of you will enjoy each other's minds, and possib=y come up with some very interesting ideas for future research.

Best,

## Ted, (cont.)
