One hundred and fifty young research scientists from countries participating in the Organization for European Economic Cooperation will be brought to the United States, each for a period of two years, under a program announced during the summer by the National Academy of Sciences and the Foreign Operations Administration. Designed to contribute to closer scientific relations between this country and the OEEC nations in Europe, the program will enable specialists in the physical sciences from abroad to carry on basic research in American universities or private laboratories and subsequently to explore the “practical applications of basic research” in industrial laboratories where they will work on problems in applied research.
