DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND
HUMAN SERVICES
National Institutes of Health
Submission for OMB Review; 30-Day
Comment Request; Surveys and
Interviews To Support an Evaluation of
the Innovative Molecular Analysis
Technologies (IMAT) Program (NCI)
Under the provisions of
Section 3507(a)(1)(D) of the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995, the National
Cancer Institute, 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 March 23, 2016, Vol. 81,
Page 15541 and allowed 60-days for
public comment. The purpose of this
notice is to allow an additional 30 days
for public comment. The National
Cancer Institute (NCI), 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,

SUMMARY:

presents a rich and unique opportunity
likely to serve institutes across the
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.
Prior approval from OMB allowed for
extensive surveys and interviews
already, and this extension is requested
to accommodate unforeseen delays in
collecting the remaining information.
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
Acting Director Douglas Lowy 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 233.

revised, or implemented on or after
October 1, 1995, unless it displays a
currently valid OMB control number.
Direct Comments to OMB: Written
comments and/or suggestions regarding
the item(s) contained in this notice,
especially regarding the estimated
public burden and associated response
time, should be directed to the: Office
of Management and Budget, Office of
Regulatory Affairs, OIRA_submission@
omb.eop.gov or by fax to 202–395–6974,
Attention: NIH Desk Officer.
Comment Due Date: Comments
regarding this information collection are
best assured of having their full effect if
received within 30 days of the date of
this publication.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: To
obtain a copy of the data collection
plans and instruments, or request more
information on the proposed project,
contact: Anthony Dickherber, NCI
Center for Strategic Scientific Initiatives,

including your address to:

requests for additional plans and
instruments must be requested in

Proposed Collection: Surveys and
Interviews to Support an Evaluation of
the Innovative Molecular Analysis
Technologies (IMAT) Program (NCI),
0925–0720, Expiration Date 5/31/2016—
EXTENSION, 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
