In 1937, recognizing the value of Dr. I lopkins' research, the American Philos ophical society awarded him a three-year research grant. His discoveries about the structure and life functions of dis ease-producing entamoebae will be of benefit to science in that they will en able scientists to destroy the amoeba without injuring the human body.
