Excerpt from Annual Report of Program Activities, National Cancer Institute, Vol. 4: Fiscal Year 1973 In this regard, another function of the Branch has taken on even - greater significance. Since more and more funds are being allocated for contracted research, the surveillance by the Branch for possible conflicts and over lap between grants and contracts becomes more essential. Each Type I, 2, 3, and 5 grant application from an institution is reviewed and compared with all the currently active contracts at the institution. Likewise, all new and renewal contract proposals are similarly compared with active and pending grants at the same institution. This review is performed strictly as a service for the nci Division of Cancer Grants and the other research Divisions. Whenever problems are detected the proper program officers are notified and steps are taken to correct them.
