I've been asked to start a Harvard-wide Program in Placebo Studies which will be hosted at the Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center. It will do basic, clinical and social science research as well as scholarly work in placebo studies. We arc situated in all the major teaching hospitals at Harvard and have already drawn commitments from over 20 faculty. Anne Harrington will be joining us. We recently published an physiological study of placebo in the New England Journal of Medicine and a PROT13 PROT2 theoretical paper in Philosophic Transactions of the Roy Soc B. (I'm attaching fyi). We anticipate making some major breakthroughs in genetic of placebo effects (were submitting our findings in the next days) and have major studies in the pipeline. Were hoping that this program will establish Placebo Studies as a important component of medical research internationally. Here is our new websitc: WWW.prouraminpl acebostudies.org. Let me know if this is of any interest for you. Sincerely, Ted Ted J.

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 scientist. Placebo research has been his special interest for a decade (and Chinese Medicine 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 medidne, 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.
