Foreign scholars assured of funds to support them while they are in the United States are eligible to apply for Fulbright travel grants to cover transportation to and from this country. During 1951–52, a total of 28 foreign physicists received such aid in carrying on physics research or teaching in this country. They were part of a group of some 380 scholars from other countries who obtained Fulbright travel grants under that year's program—an increase of approximately 25 percent over the number for the previous year. Of these, 119 worked in some phase of the physical sciences and 113 in biological fields. The 1952–53 figures show the number of those in physics to have remained about the same.
