Hello,

No, I can't help you directly, but from the mail pathway, you might try 
contacting Johns Hopkins Univerity. Note the University, not the Applied 
Physics Lab.  Try at the hospital, osiris and welvax are machines at the 
hospital. Rumor has it that he may have gone to Pyramid when Tolchin left..
. Just rumors..

Hope this helps a little...
