The Act states (Section473 (a)) that the purposes of Nation's overall need for study are to: "(1) establish, (A) the subject areas biomedical and behavioralresearch personnel, (B) the such personnel in which such personnel areneeded and the number of training needed in each such area, and(C) the kinds arid extent of (A) current which should be providedsuch. personnel; (2) assess for the training ofbiomedical and . training programs available thi's Act behavioral research personnelwhich are conducted under Institutes of Health rat or throughinstitutes under the National Administration, and and the Alcohol,'DrugAbuse, and Mental Health programs'available for the trainingof (B) pther current training (3) identify the kinds of researchpositions avail- such personnel; (4) deter-', able to, and held byindividuals completing such programs; in mine, to the extent feasible,whether the programs referred'to the-needs clause (B) of paragraph(2) would be adequate to meet in established under paragraph(1).if the programs referred to (5) determine clause (A) of paragraph(2) were terminated; and (2) what mcdifications in theprograms,referred to in paragraph under paragraph (1).", are required to meetthe needs established II 0 In the eleven months that have elapsed since the-submissionof Lhe 1975 report, the Committee has increased its ability to respond to these requirements. _The present report, unlike tne 1975 report, contains recommendations for departures from the prevailing training levels in three of four broad training areas as well as for redistri- bution of training funds between predoctoral and postdoctoral appointments. :Nevertheless, much remains to be done.before the Committee_will have achieved its goal of responding fully to the reqffirements of the Act. I trust that_the year ahead will see further progress toward this goal. We shall be glad to discuss the report with you and your staff. Sincerely yours, P lip flandler President Enclosure 6 PREFACE This 1976 report is the secondof the annual reports prepared by the Committee on aStudy of National Needs Dor Biomedical and Behaviordl ResearchPersonnel in a continuing study that was established pursuantto the'provisions of the National Research Service Award Actof 1974 (Public Law 93- 348).\,The report presents the resultsof work by the Committee and its advisorypdsnels and staff on a limited number of questions of pressingimportance. The-broader set of complex issues addretsedby the Act and summarized inthe opening pages of Chapter 1 willguide the Committee in its future activities. The Committee addressed itselfin this report primarily to the most pressingissue, that of makingspecinc recommendations for the numberof individuals who shouldbe supported by the research training programsof the National Ins-Atutes of Health and theAlcohol, Drug Abuse, and Mental fiscal years 1977 and'1978 in , Health Administration during each of four broad fields: basic biomedical sciences, behavioral sciences, clinicalsdiences, and health services research. In addition, theCommiiitee has made,specific recomthendations with regard both tothe numbers to be suppOrted at the variousacadethlc levels of training and to the mechanisms by whichfunding should be proirided. The Committee will monitor theeffectiveness and impact of its current set_of recommendations overthe coming year. It has also developed a set of goalsand planned.a set of supporting Activities that willpermit a wider array 'of issues to be studied and reported uponin the ensuing annual reports. Because this report is oneof a continuing series, the ! redder is referred to thefirst annual report, that for 1915, as well as to the reportof the feasibility study isSued in February 1975 (seeBiblibgraphy) for details concerning the history ofthe Committee, lts organization, activities, and previousrecommendations. The earlier reports treat tae principlesthat underlie research training and the problems that areinherent in studies of professional personnel. They also contain discussionsof the relationship of federallysupported.research training programs to healthresearch and health care' needsof the nation, the history of the growthof federally supported research training,-and adescription of /tome characteristics and activities of NationalInstitutes ofHealth-supported trainees and fellows. Although no attempt has been madeto duplicate such information inthe current report, Chapter2 enlarges upon the principlesenunciated previously, while Chapter 3 develops and refinesthe issues related to personnel supply and to nationalneeds and.market demands. Chapter 4 relates the provisionsof the Act to areas'that will require special attentionby the Committee in its continuing'study. Central to all of these effortsis the fundamental issue of the degree or extentto which it is possible anduseful to define and establish human-resourcerequirements for increasingly fine fields ofspecialization within the biomedical and behavioral sciendes.

    Robert A. Alberty 1921–2014 A Biographical Memoir by Gordon G. Hammes and Carl Frieden ©2014 National Academy of Sciences. Any opinions expressed in this memoir are those of the authors and do not necessarily reflect the views of the National Academy of Sciences. ROBERT ARNOLD ALBERTY June 21, 1921–January 18, 2014 Elected to the NAS, 1965 Robert A. Alberty maintained an enthusiasm for science throughout his entire life. His presence at meetings was easily detectable, as he was blessed with an unmistak- able and booming voice that conveyed his latest scien- tific interests and above all his continual commitment to the science enterprise. Alberty directed this passion to thermodynamics and kinetics in particular, especially as applied to biological systems, and his research in these areas established a rich legacy for modern biophysical chemistry. He was a “triple-threat” scientist, excelling not only in research but also in teaching and university administration. Alberty (Bob to all who knew him) was born in Winfield, By Gordon G. Hammes Kansas, but when he was five years old his family moved and Carl Frieden to Lincoln, Nebraska. Even as a boy, he displayed a strong interest in science, exemplified by a basement chemistry laboratory and photographic dark room that he built in the family’s home. When he entered the University of Nebraska in 1939, Alberty had been planning a career as a chemical engineer, but then he discovered that this would require extensive coursework in drafting and surveying. Because he had already learned surveying from his grandfather, he saw no need to take college courses in the subject.
