Dear Professor Kaiser,
I am a project manager at the Center for Science and Society at Columbia University. I am contacting you in connection with our interdisciplinary program, Presidential Scholars in Society and Neuroscience<http://presidentialscholars.columbia.edu/society_neuroscience_event/sound-studies-auditory-neuroscience-new-perspectives-listening-seminars-society-neuroscience/>, which supports a small cohort of interdisciplinary postdocs. We have recently announced a call for applications for the 2018-19 academic year. I wondered if I could ask you to spread the word about the program among the graduate students in your program. I realize you are extremely busy with the new semester, and I am grateful for your help.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Best,
Jozef Sulik
