The Career Survey of Biomedical
Researchers will evaluate the success of the Loan Repayment Program
(LRP) at raising the probability that a qualified scientest will
remain in the intramural research program and pursue a long-term
career as a biomedical researcher. Moreover, it will document
actual career outcomes of current and former LRP participants which
in turn will be used to address the outcome and impact study
questions related to short and long-term retention, both at NIH and
in research generally. This information may be used to gauge
whether the LRP is meeting the expectations...
