WRITINGS

Scope and Content of Series

Series 2) WRITINGS. Arranged in three subseries: A) Kuru Collected Writings, B) Reprints, and C) Journals.
A) Kuru Collected Writings: Three bound volumes of papers (1957-1966) by Gajdusek and other scientists documenting the initial discovery, possible causes, and various investigations surrounding kuru, including Igor Klatzo's comparison of Kuru to Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease in humans, William J. Hadlow's letter to the Lancet comparing kuru to scrapie in sheep, investigations of epidemiology, and early consideration of the cannibalism theories of Robert M. and Shirley (now Lindenbaum) Glasse. Each volume begins with a numbered index in chronological order.
B) Reprints: Three bound volumes of Gajdusek's later papers (1980-1985), beginning with a numbered index. Also included are two hundred and thirty-two unbound reprints (1957-1996) by Gajdusek, alone and with others, published both before and after the bound volumes. In all cases the reprints are arranged chronologically by reprint number.
C) Journals: Typescript bound copies of Gajdusek's daily journals from his numerous expeditions around the world. Seventeen of the journals (1955-1970 plus a section of Gajdusek's 1993 journal) are published, and sixteen journals are unpublished (1955-1996). Some of the journals are edited and contain illustrations and photographs.

LEGAL FILES

Scope and Content of Series

Series 4) LEGAL FILES: Gajdusek's personal documentation regarding the charges of child molestation brought against him in 1996. The material consists of photocopies of letters and petitions of support from scientists, Papua New Guinean and Micronesian children who lived with him and some of whom were adopted by him, and other citizens and officials of Papua New Guinea. These documents were used to initially support Gajdusek against the charges and later to help convince the judge to accept the plea agreement the parties had negotiated. Also included is correspondence relating to the plea agreement that he entered with the State of Maryland, the United States Attorney's concurrence, an FBI memorandum of an interview with a former scientific colleague who reported his suspicions regarding possible child abuse, press clippings, and documentation of his scientific contributions.
