Shape1 TITLE OF INFORMATION COLLECTION:

DCCPS Fellows Symposium Submission


PURPOSE:

The purpose of this data collection is to help NCI staff 1) plan for the 2019 DCCPS Fellows Symposium; 2) select the presentations done at the symposium (as either oral presentations or posters); 3) gather information about Mentor of the Year nominations. Submitted abstracts and award nominations will be reviewed by an internal NCI committee responsible for planning the activities, who will be making final decisions regarding accepted abstracts and awards.


The information collected for the purposes of participant registration will include two surveys: the initial one will ask for name, educational degree(s), DCCPS affiliation, name of mentor(s), whether they will be attending the symposium, whether they want to present at the symposium, and whether they want to submit a Mentor of the Year award. If they want to submit an abstract, the form will ask for a short abstract (~300 words) including the title and a description of the project, whether the submitting author would like to the abstract to be considered for an oral presentation, a poster, or either. If they say they want to submit a Mentor of the Year award, they will be sent a separate form that will ask for their: name and educational degree(s), DCCPS affiliation, name of DCCPS staff member being nominated, and the nomination (500 words max.).


Without collecting information on how many people are planning to attend the meeting and their affiliation, NCI staff would not be able to properly plan for the symposium. NCI staff also need to be able to collect abstracts prior to the symposium in order to make decisions regarding the research presented there, as this ensures that all research presented is relevant and of high quality. NCI staff also need nominations for Mentor of the Year so they can review and judge the best submission.
