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 i= about placebo effects and we use
a multi-discplinary approach: basic, cli=ical and social science and collaborate with the humanities (history, ethi=s, etc.)
We published in these areas and have some exciting studies in the pipe=ine.
We can start with a phone call or whatever.
Your call.

Jeffrey and Ted,

Jeffrey,
&nbs.;
Ted Kaptchuk is a deeply philosophical scientist. Placebo research ha= been his

wonderful book, The Web That Has No Weaver, abou= trad Chinese medicine, as the 2nd practitioner to visit China after
the t=aw in the 70s. He can send you studies, etc. if you would like. =
Ted,
Jeffrey is a very successful investor. But the =eason I am recommending he talk
with you is that he has a brilliant =cientific 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 b=lieve in and use homeopathy)
I think the two of you will enjoy each other's minds, and possibl= come up with
some very interesting ideas for future research.
&nb=p;
Best,
Woody
