Chain was a member of the Science Committee (renamed the Scientific Advisory Committee in 1970) from its inception in 1963 until its disbandment in 1973. He also served on the Research Funds Committee, which was setu up in 1970 to review applications for research grants and to allocate funds, in place of the Science Committee which was felt to have become too cumbersome to deal with the growing volume of work. Chain received support from the Foundation for some of his own research projects at Imperial College; see especially E.25 below for material relating to his application with D.J. Hearse for a grant for research into 'Drugs and Cardiac Metabolism'.
