RFPs - NHLI Budget FY '72, 1971-1972
Scope and Contents
The progress of specific National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) contracts is documented in this series. These contracts supported ongoing research into the development of temporary left ventricular assist devices (LVADs), permanent artificial hearts, and energy sources for these devices. They also detail research on the effects of biomaterials coming in contact with blood, atherosclerosis, clinical LVAD trials, and using lab rats and dogs for clinical research. There are five sub-series: Requests for Proposals (RFPs), Applications and Proposals, Reviews, Reports, and General. The first two sub-series contain solicitations to potential contractors for research proposals and the contractors' submissions. The Reviews sub-series consists of material gathered during the review of an application for a new research contract and renewals of existing contracts. This material includes lists of institutions receiving the RFPs, review committee member information, meeting minutes, summary sheets for recommended and not recommended proposals, and approval memos. Reports in the fourth sub-series are quarterly, annual, and final progress reports from the contractors. The General sub-series consists of correspondence, memoranda, reports, license applications, and miscellaneous files relating work done on specific research contracts. Each sub-series is arranged chronologically by folder date.
