Scope and content
Most of the contents relate to the Advisory Committee on Medical Research (ACMR) of the World Health Organization (WHO).
The ACMR was established in 1959 "to provide the Director-General with the necessary scientific advice in relation to the research programme" [letter, Martin Kaplan, Secretary of the ACMR, to SZ, 23.2.73, in File SZ/WHO/1]. The eighteen-member Committee met annually in Geneva, usually in June.
SZ served on the Committee for one four-year term, from January 1973 to December 1976. He was simultaneously appointed to the Expert Panel on Human Reprodution for a four-year period. His membership of this Panel was renewed for four successive 2-year periods, and then in March 1984 for one more year. Beyond correspondence relating to his appointment and its renewal, this series appears to contain nothing else relating to the Panel. This Series is to some extent complementary to Series SZ/ZP.
A number of WHO publications are now to be found in that part of SZ's personal library bequeathed to UEA and now joined with his Archive.
