Invitation — scientific roundtable at the island
Dear Colleagues,
You are invited to a three-day gathering at my property in the U.S. Virgin Islands from March 15-17, 2012.
The purpose of this roundtable is to bring together leading thinkers across multiple disciplines to discuss the frontiers of scientific understanding. Topics will include:
— Evolutionary biology and its applications to human behavior — Artificial intelligence and machine consciousness — Quantum computing and cryptography — Genetics, genomics, and the future of human enhancement
I have found that the most productive intellectual conversations happen in informal settings, away from the pressures of academic institutions and grant committees. The island provides an ideal environment for the kind of free-ranging discussion that leads to genuine breakthroughs.
Travel arrangements will be handled by my office. A private aircraft will depart from Teterboro Airport in New Jersey on the morning of March 15th, with a stop in Palm Beach for additional guests before continuing to St. Thomas, where a boat will transport us to the island.
Accommodations and all expenses will be covered. Please confirm your attendance with my assistant Lesley Groff by February 20th.
I look forward to a stimulating exchange of ideas.
Sincerely, Jeffrey Epstein J. Epstein VI Foundation
