The Rocket Boys of NIH Book - In 1957, members of an NIH review committee dug into their wallets and purses to give a “grant” to a 9-year-old boy named Terence Boylan of Snyder, N.Y. His energetic request for $10 to build a rocket ship with his friend Bruce Cook moved distinguished members of this NIH committee to invest in the future. The book tells the trials and triumphs of NIH’s youngest researchers. It also shows in a dramatic way how NIH and medical research work to save lives and make people healthier.   (Center for Scientific Review and Center for Scientific Review)
