Children's Art Graces CRC Construction Fence By Rich McManus Photos by Ernie Branson
What getting a paper published in a major journal is to a scientist,
what landing a fellowship in a prestigious laboratory is to a postdoc,
what winning an NIH Director's Award is to an employee
here — these successes approximate the pride exhibited by a
dozen or so youngsters who visited NIH Apr. 30 for the official
unveiling of their artworks, which now grace a small fraction of the
extensive construction fencing around the new Clinical Research
Center. Twenty colorful illustrations, selected from a pool of some
100 contributions from kids, now decorate a 50-foot segment of the
fencing, hinting at the esteem art will have in the new hospital.
Fruit of Recent Retreat By Rich McManus
Dr. Gary Nabel, new director of the Vaccine Research Center,
compared the VRC organizational structure — a recent
invention of his — to both a company with a board of
directors and to University of Michigan football at an hour-long
presentation before NIH's AIDS vaccine research committee
(AVRC) on May 5.
