Dear Jeffrey,
I am delighted to invite you to a dinner at my home this fall to share the excitement of what's
happening at Columbia's new Zuckerman
Institute (Zuckermanlnstitute.Columbia.edu). As you know, I have become intimately
involved with Columbia through my passion for neuroscience and my belief in its
importance.
For me this is both a personal commitment and a great adventure. Over the past year or so I
have had the opportunity to learn about the research horizon from some of the world's
top neuroscientists, to visit the labs where it's all taking place, and to look just a few
years ahead to when the Institute will open the doors to its new home on Columbia's
Manhattanville campus.
Please join me, Columbia University President Lee C. Bollinger, and the Zuckerman Institute
leadership for an evening exploring Columbia's neuroscience horizon. The Institute's
scientific leadership--Thomas Jessell, Charles Zuker and Nobel laureates Richard Axel
and Eric Kandel—will be with us on October 29, and Tom, Richard and Charles will also
join us on November 12. Each evening begins with cocktails at 6:30 p.m. and dinner at 7
p.m. Please let us know which evening you can attend.
RSVP to Me han Fay at for dinner at my home,M
on either October 29 or November 12.
I am privileged to be able to share in what Tom Richard, Eric, Charles and their colleagues
across Columbia's campuses are learning about all of us as they plan for a future of
breakthrough discoveries in mind, brain, and behavior.
I look forward to seeing you in the fall,
Mort Zuckerman
