This book describes the progression of the Division of Research Grants from its inception to the present day and offers a first-hand account of the development of an agency vital to the facilitation and maintenance of medical research in the United States. The narrative establishes the context of research funding by the Public Health Service before and after World War II and the gaps this funding left unaddressed, leading to the creation of the National Institutes of Health. The book explores the burgeoning growth of research grant programs from 1946 to 1971, during a period of significant biomedical advances, describing the ways in which this expansion led to important changes in the administration and processes of the Division of Research Grants. The author traces the evolution of the division's application review and processing protocols while emphasizing the importance of the peer review system and spotlighting the efforts of key individuals who contributed to the division's growth and success. By providing historical context and personal reflection, the author provides crucial insight into the development of a vital biomedical research support system in the United States.
