Dr. Murray came to the National Institutes of Health (NIH) in 1947 as a commissioned Public Health Services (PHS) officer in the Laboratory of Biologics Controls, which later became the Division of Biological Standards (DBS). He was Director of DBS from 1955 to 1972. According to Dr. Ruth Kirschstein, this was not a position he wanted or for which he was particularly well-suited. He had been in the Army during World War II and built a reputable career studying hepatitis. He was a member of Commissioned Corps of the PHS so he did not have much say in taking choice in whether or not to take the position or not.
