Cancer Control
Summary: Under the provisions of
Section 3507(a)(1)(D) of the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995, the (National
Cancer Institute), the National Institutes
of Health has submitted to the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) a
request to review and approve the
information collection listed below.
This proposed information collection
was previously published in the Federal
Register on August 31, 2004, page 53079
and allowed 60-days for public
comment. No public comments were
received. The purpose of this notice is
to allow an additional 30 days for public
comment. The National Institutes of
Health may not conduct or sponsor, and

OMB control number.
Proposed Collection: Title: Outcome
Evaluation of the Small Grants Program

Control. Type of Information Collection
Request: NEW. Need and Use of
Information Collection: The Small
Grants Program support projects that
can be completed in a short period of
time, such as pilot projects,
development and testing of new
methodologies, secondary data analyses,
or innovative studies that provide a
basis for more extended research. This
evaluation is being conducted to
identify progress of this program in
establishing a cohort of scientists with
a high level of research expertise in
behavioral research cancer control. A
primary objective of this study is to
determine if the program’s small grants
R03 funding mechanism is effective in
attracting investigators to the field of
behavioral research and if so, what
impact does the program have on the
career of successful applicants. The
findings will provide valuable
information regarding (1) effectiveness
of the program in attracting investigators
to the field; (2) the impact of the
program on investigators careers; and (3)
the overall benefit provided by the
program through the R03 funding
mechanism and assist the agency in
determining whether changes to the
program are necessary in future.
