Ndifon Date: Wed, Jul 31, 2013 at 2:28 PM Subject: Supporting the Global Health Research of Wilfred Ndifon To: Dear Mr. Epstein, I am a scientific researcher who is working in the field of global health. My previous research has led to, among other results, the discovery of a method for developing improved influenza vaccines (see www.pnas.org/content/106/21/8701.full and http://paw.princeton.edu/issues/2009/01/28/pages/2448/index.xml?page=3&), and the development of a technology for high-throughput sequencing and analysis of T-cell receptors, which are key to the human body's ability to fight against disease (see www.pnas.org/content/109/39/15865.full). For more information about my research activities, please see the attached curriculum vitae. I am currently working as an independent researcher in Cameroon, West-Central Africa, at a research institution that I founded and am financing using my personal funds (see the attached brochure for a brief description of the institution). My current work focuses on various infectious diseases, including AIDS, tuberculosis, and certain cancers, and it is aimed at discovering improved ways of diagnosing, preventing, and treating these diseases. I also work on certain fundamental problems in immunology, related to the organizing principles of lymphocyte receptor repertoires (see www.pnas.org/content/109/39/15865.full; also see refs. 1-6 of the attached CV). I am writing to ask for assistance with funding my research activities. Any contribution that you can provide, whether in cash or in kind, will go some way towards supporting research that has the potential to greatly improve the lives of people living around the world.
