- Abstract
The article presents information on the proposed budget for biological sciences in fiscal year 1976. It reports that there is an increase of $9.1 million for biological sciences in the proposed $775.4 million budget for the National Science Foundation (NSF) in fiscal year 1976. Total funds for NSF increased by $78.3 million. About 83% of the research budget will go for basic research, with the remainder directed to applied research, primarily in the areas of environment, food, and technology. In biochemistry and physiology, funds will support expanded research in neurobiology, as well as in the biochemistry and physiology of plants. The budget will also finance cell and tissue culture facilities. For the U.S. National Institutes of Health, the budget proposed $1.6 billion.
