Durham, North Carolina USA, =7705 Thank you once again for your generosity which is =ery moving. We will use this money to produce a unique academic =latform that will make its mark in science education history. Jean-Francois Gariepy Postdoctoral fellow Duke =nstitute for Brain Sciences Duke University 2013/11/10 =effrey Epstein <[email protected]> Let's start at =5k On Sunday, November 10, 2013, Jean-Francois Gariopy =rote: Dear Mr. =pstein, Your trust in our initiative means a lot to me and =iana. I am attaching a brochure which describes the different types of =artnerships that we offer. We are looking at funding the initiative using two methods. First, =he Kickstarter campaign at http://kickstarter.neuro.tv <http://kickstarter.neuro.tv/> seeks to gather funds =rom scientists and the general public who support us and our goal of =25,000 needs to be attained before the end of November. Secondly, as =escribed in the brochure, we are looking for one or two major =nstitution or foundation to partner with, or many smaller donations =rom multiple foundations and institutions. We would prefer partnering =ith one or two major donors. The total amount of money needed on the =nstitutional side ranges from $20,000 to $50,000. The exact amount =eeded depends on the requirements of the donor. For instance, if a main =onor was willing to share sponsorship of the program with Duke =niversity, who has expressed interest in sharing sponsorship, then =20,000 would suffice. If you would like to fund the entire initiative, =hen we would need something closer to the $50,000 mark. The Kickstarter campaign can be contributed to directly on the =eb, while institutional donations can be made by check to "NEURO.tv =nc.". Please let me know which type of partnership you would be =nterested in and I can give you our address. 5 EFTA_R1_00056071 EFTA01755361 As you know from our previous email and campaign on the web, =EURO.tv is an innovative platform that not only seeks to produce an =nteresting show on the brain but also regroups some of the brightest =inds in neuroscience and philosophy for one hour while they discuss =bout what matters to them and determine what should be the future =irections in our investigation of the brain and behaviors. The help of =isionary individuals like you will be essential to realize our dream of =n academic show that is both scientifically accurate and free to view =or everyone. We thank you for your interest in our unique =nitiative.
