Submission for OMB Review; 30-Day
Comment Request; Investigating
Factors That Influence Career Choice
Among Neuroscience Trainees
(NINDS)
Under the provisions of
Section 3507(a)(1)(D) of the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995, the National
Institute of Neurological Disorders and
Stroke (NINDS), the National Institutes
of Health, has submitted to the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) a
request for review and approval of the
information collection listed below.
This proposed information collection
was previously published in the Federal
Register on Tuesday, January 12, 2016
on pages 1436–1437 and allowed 60days 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 Institute of Neurological
Disorders and Stroke (NINDS), National
Institutes of Health, may not conduct or
sponsor, and the respondent is not
required to respond to, an information
collection that has been extended,
revised, or implemented on or after
October 1, 1995, unless it displays a
currently valid OMB control number.

SUMMARY:
influencing career choice among
different populations, particularly those
underrepresented in the neuroscience
workforce. Few studies have looked into
factors influencing career choice among
biomedical science trainees and how
those career choices are influenced by
social identity (race/ethnicity, gender,
disability, disadvantaged background,
and their intersection); none, to our
knowledge, has reported this data
specifically for neuroscientists. In
pursuit of the training mission of
NINDS, the Office of Training, Career
Development, and Workforce Diversity
(OTCDWD) administers programs to
train the next generation of
neuroscientists and to increase diversity
of the neuroscience workforce. The
information collected from this survey
will help give NINDS a clearer picture
of the environment and experiences of
our trainee and potential trainee
community. We are seeking a more
accurate understanding of the career
choices neuroscience trainees are
making, and how well NINDS supports
our trainees’ needs and facilitates
successful career trajectories. The
survey will help improve our current
programs, develop training
opportunities, and provide
programmatic support for current and
future NINDS trainees.
OMB approval is requested for 18
months. There are no costs to
respondents other than their time. The
total estimated annualized burden hours
are 205.
