Excerpt from National Institutes of Health Annual Report of International Activities: Fiscal Year 1975 It has been the policy of the National Institutes of Health for many years to stimulate and support interna tional biomedical research. Since the end of World War II, in particular, nih also has sought to extend inter national biomedical cooperation, recognizing, of course, that the exchange of data among scientists of many nations is fundamental to scientific progress. Thus, substantial research grant awards have contributed to the developing of productive working relationships between nih and foreign laboratories. Other support of various kinds has also been instrumental in bringing foreign scientific competence to American science. Ultimately, these efforts seek to broaden the knowledge base of the biomedical sciences devoted to improved health for citizens of the United States and those of other nations. In pursuit of these research objectives nih undertook numerous international activities during fiscal year 1975. In addition to the continuation of ongoing grant and train ing awards, nih scientists attended many international biomedical conferences, sponsored international symposia and seminars of various scientific and associated bio medical problems, received distinguished foreign biomed ical scientists, and published several books and papers advancing nih research programs. The Fogarty International Center, as the point of coordination for the international activities of nih, initiated or was involved in a sub stantial part of the international cooperation in the biomedical sciences delineated in this report.
