I was thinking about his areas of interest. Here are three people. I have NOT contacted any of them, but I know them all personally and would be happy to connect you if he likes their background. has both a physics degree AND a lot of experience covering neuroscience topics. He's a former AP reporter, formerly of BusinessWeek, spent many years running the Council for the Advancement of Science Writing's annual conferencecthe whole gig there is to scout out interesting stories that would make great sessions. He's currently writer for the Knight Science Journalism Tracker at MIT, but he's based here in NY. Plus, he's a swell guy. I've known him since my days at Popular Science<oh, at least 25 years. ■ has written several books, most recently Do Fathers Matter? E-mail: a former staff editor of Scientific American, who has recently gone freelance to pursue his dream of writing long, long pieces for places like the New Yorker. I think we will all be working for him some day. His coverage area specialty is neuroscience, BUT he can pretty much do anything. I've seldom seen as impressive a young writer. Really. He's in New York. E-mail: is former editor in chief of Discover, and a lovely writer. His background and preference is to cover a lot of physics and astronomy. He's also written a book, and is a marvelous reporter and a friend of mine. He's in New York.

So sorry for my slowness! Still happy to welcome Jeffrey to our offices one Monday, if he is ever available. I'm traveling (London) next week, back in NY the week after and then away in Dubai for the Global Agenda Councils in Dubai and then the World Library of Science launch in Paris the second week of November. Back again November 17. Hope all is well! Best, Editor in Chief and SVP Scientific American -• 9th Floor New York, NY 10013 ScientificAmerican.com EFTA_R1_00892035 EFTA02092480
