This is a revision request that seeks renewal of clearance for collecting career-related data for trainees funded or co-funded by the Fogarty International Center (FIC), National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS), National Institute of General Medical Science (NIGMS), National Library of Medicine (NLM) and National Cancer Institute (NCI). The data collection system provides a streamlined, web-based application permitting principal investigators and their administrators to record career achievement progress by trainee on a voluntary basis. FIC, NIEHS, NIGMS, NLM and NCI Program Officers will use this data to monitor, evaluate and adjust grants to ensure desired outcomes are achieved, respond to congressional inquiries, and inform future strategic and management decisions regarding the grants program.
