Abstract

Our purpose in this text is to present an important source for the analysis of the Rockefeller Foundation’s activities in the training of public health professionals linked to Brazilian institutions between 1917 and 1951: the Fellowship Cards. In order to highlight the potential of this source, which is also valuable for studies on professional careers and construction of collective biographies, we transcribe the card of Francisco Borges Vieira.
