Soybean Study at Rehovot
Gets Agriculture Dept. Aid

REHOVOTH — Weizmann Insti-
tute 'researchers have just received
a 615,000 pound ($205,000) grant
from the U.S. Department of Agri-
Ilture to continue their study of
bean proteins, which, they
, may eventually contribute
alleviating the severe world
shortage of protein-rich foods.
The grant, which covers a five-
year period, went to Prof. Ephraim
Katchalski, head of the Weizmann
Institute's biophysics department,
and Prof. Nathan Sharon of that
department. Their research in this
field began under an earlier Agri-
culture Department allocation in
1961.
The Weizmann Institute's bio-
physics department was chosen to
do the research on soybean pro-
teins because of its pioneering
work in developing synthetic pro-
einlike materials and. investigating
their characteristics.
