then more particle physics, dali lama, with Kosslyn.. What is a good time to call?

Woody, Thank you for the introduction.
Jeffrey, Whenever you'd like to talk....i talk placebo most of the time....tell me.
All my work and the work of my laboratory is about placebo effects and we use a multi-discplinary
approach: basic, clinical and social science and collaborate with the humanities (history, ethics, etc.)
We published in these areas and have some exciting studies in the pipeline.
We can start with a phone call or whatever.
Your call.

Jeffrey and Ted,
This is an introduction of the two of you to each other. I think you will have a very stimulating, exciting dialogue. I
have spoken with each of you about the other.
Jeffrey,
Ted Kaptchuk is a deeply philosophical sdentist. Placebo research has been his special interest for a decade (and
Chinese Medidne before that—in addition 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 for > 10 years, principally affiliated with their
Osher Center for Research in Complementary and Alternative Medicine. He wrote a wonderful book, The Web That
Has No Weaver, about trad Chinese medicine, 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 I am recommending he talk with you is that he has a brilliant
scientific mind, is very interested in research and recently he has taken a keen interest in some far-reaching
questions about the implications of the placebo response. (partly stemming out of his surprise that i would believe in
and use homeopathy)
I think the two of you will enjoy each other's minds, and possibly come up with some very interesting ideas for future
research.
Best,
Woody
