Last three weeks it bothered me that you/Larry might be under an impression=that it was not me that found Foundation Medicine but rather we all saw it=at KPBC at the same time. The reason that I knew about Foundation Medicine before KPBC summit is that=l was working with them on getting cancer sample sequenced. Also Eric Land=r told me a while ago. I was updating you and Nathan re their sequencing =fforts (email below) It was me that suggested Larry and Lila that we should also meet FM at KPBC=summit and even pushed for it before and after our meeting. I have a number of emails prior and after that summit. I am happy to forwa=d them to Larry/you if you would like. Perhaps it does not matter right now but I just wanted to clarify. Thank you Boris Original Message From: Boris Nikolic Sent: Monday, September 24, 2012 2:12 PM To: Nathan Myhrvold; Bill Gates Subject: FW: Connecting you HI Nathan, I just checked whether Foundation Medicine (FM) received tumor tissue for a=alysis, but as of today it still did not (see below). They tried everything to speed up but because some (unknown to me) reason, =t is going very slow. EFTA_R1_01743085 EFTA02573180 You can see part of emails trails below • it has been weeks/months that we =re trying to obtain this tissue. I am just afraid that time is not on our side and that a critical window is=closing. Broad people tried to push Kaplan but there is a limit what they can do. Also as I do not know Kaplan and am not involved in her care, it would be g=eat if you can GENTLY see what else can be done that her tumor tissue is f=nally send out. Thank you!

I don't think there's =ore we can do. I've already pressed as hard as I feel comfortable. Todd On Sep 24, 2012, at 1:16 PM, Boris Nikolic wrote: > HI Todd, > Sorry for bothering you again with this.
