Scope and Contents

From the Collection:

The Medical Research Foundation records house the organizational records of this medical research funding foundation. This collection, which dates from 1956 to 2009, consists of Board of Trustees meeting minutes and communication, correspondence within the organization, research proposals and reports, and photographs portraying the students, researchers, trustees, board members and medical professionals associated with MRF, the Oregon Regional Primate Research Center (ORPRC, now the Oregon National Primate Research Center), and MRF's Discovery Awards occurring between 1979 and 1994. Additionally, there are two OHSU promotional videos that were donated with this collection. These materials are unique in that they contain very specific workings of a foundation that funds medical and scientific research. This collection details how an active Board of Trustees operates, how grant applications and funding proceed, and detail much of the work that was funded by the Medical Research Foundation, specifically the ORPRC in Beaverton, OR.

The “Board of Trustees” series includes detailed minutes and internal communication of the organization. The “Correspondence” series mainly contains communication from the presidents and vice presidents and some other staff regarding operations and inquires of the foundation. The “Publications and Research” series contains grant proposals, research reports, the organization's Bulletin newsletter, and promotional and report information about the primate center. The last series, “Media”, contains pictures and promotional videos from OHSU.
