On Aug. 28, 1946, Oklahoma’s Secretary of State Frank C. Carter granted the charter of the Oklahoma Medical Research Foundation.

All told, 7,500 Oklahomans donated more than $2 million to build laboratories and a research hospital. And what began as a two-person operation in 1946 has grown into an internationally recognized research institute.
