Section
3506(c)(2)(A) of the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995 requires: Written
comments and/or suggestions from the
public and affected agencies are invited
to address one or more of the following
points: (1) Whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
function of the agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility; (2) The accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used; (3)
Ways to enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and (4) Ways to minimizes
the burden of the collection of
information on those who are to
respond, including the use of
appropriate automated, electronic,
mechanical, or other technological
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology.
Proposed Collection Title: Evaluation
of the Enhancing the Diversity of the
NIH-funded Workforce Program
Consortium (DPC), 0925–0747, 11/30/
2022 National Institute of General
Medical Sciences (NIGMS), National
Institutes of Health (NIH).
Need and Use of Information
Collection: The goal of the DPC is to
address a unique and compelling need
identified by NIH, namely to enhance
the diversity of well-trained biomedical
research scientists who can successfully
compete for NIH research funding and/
or otherwise contribute to the NIHfunded scientific workforce. The DPC is
a national collaborative through which
awardee institutions, in partnership
with NIH, aim to enhance diversity in
the biomedical research workforce
through the development,
implementation, assessment and
dissemination of innovative and
effective approaches to: (a) Student
outreach, engagement, training, and
mentoring, (b) faculty development, and
(c) institutional research training
infrastructure. The Coordination and
Evaluation Center (CEC) will evaluate
the efficacy of the training and
mentoring approaches implemented
across a variety of contexts and
populations and will disseminate
information to the broader research
community. The planned consortiumwide data collection and evaluation will
provide comprehensive information
about the multi-dimensional factors
(individual, institutional, and faculty/
mentor) that influence student and
faculty success, professional
development, and persistence within
biomedical research career paths across
a variety of contexts. The planned data
collection, and the resulting findings, is
projected to have a sustained,
transformative effect on biomedical
research training and mentoring
nationwide.
OMB approval is requested for 3
years. There are no costs to respondents
other than their time. The total
estimated annualized burden hours are
55,132.
