Proposed Collection: Surveys and

the Innovative Molecular Analysis
Technologies (IMAT) Program (NCI),
0925–NEW, National Cancer Institute
(NCI), National Institutes of Health
(NIH).
Need and Use of Information
Collection: The purpose of the proposed
evaluation is to pursue a comprehensive
process and outcome assessment of the
15-year old Innovative Molecular
Analysis Technologies (IMAT) program.
While the program consistently offers
promising indicators of success, the full
program has not been evaluated since
2008, and never in as comprehensive a
manner as has been formulated in the
current evaluation plan. An outcome
evaluation of the long-standing National
Cancer Institute’s (NCI) IMAT program
presents a rich and unique opportunity
likely to serve institutes across the
PO 00000
Frm 00025
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
National Institutes of Health (NIH), and
perhaps other federal agencies,
considering the costs and benefits of
directing resources towards supporting
technology development. An award
through the NIH Evaluation Set-Aside
program to support this evaluation, for
which NIH-wide relevance is a principle
element of determining merit for
support, is testament to this. The
evaluation serves as an opportunity to
gauge the impact of investments in
technology development and also to
assess the strengths and weaknesses of
phased innovation award mechanisms.
Like all institutes and centers (ICs) of
the NIH, NCI seeks opportunities for
improving their programs’ utility for the
broad continuum of researchers,
clinicians and ultimately patients. NCI
Director Harold Varmus and other
leadership across NCI, as well as the
NCI Board of Scientific Advisors, will
be the primary users of the evaluation
results. Findings are primarily intended
for considering the long-term strategy to
support innovative technology
development and how to more
efficiently translate emerging
capabilities through such technologies
into the promised benefits for cancer
research and clinical care. Interviews
with grantees, program officers, review
officers, and other NIH awardees make
up a crucial component of the
evaluation plan and will largely follow
set survey protocols. Specific near-term
aims include the use of this information
to consider the utility of continued
investment through existing
solicitations and in strategic planning
generally for institute support for
innovative technology development.
OMB approval is requested for 1 year.
There are no costs to respondents other
than their time. The total estimated
annualized burden hours are 575.
