Abstract
THE report of the Medical Research Council for 1933-34 reveals the wide boundaries within which investigations relating to health and disease are being initiated and supported throughout Great Britain, and reflects the rapid development of medical science as well as the need for scientific knowledge as a guide in practical affairs. Parliament provided a grant-in-aid of £139,000 for the Council's expenditure during the present financial year, the provisional allocation of which is, for administration £9,000, for the expenses of the National Institute for Medical Research including the farm laboratories £54,000 and for research grants to scientific workers and for the investigations of the Industrial Health Research Board £76,000. The funds available have, as usual, been augmented from other sources for the promotion of particular schemes of research.
