Rationale
This table provides insight into the environment in which the proposed training will take place. It allows reviewers to assess whether the program has the "critical mass" of trainees and faculty and, in the case of interdepartmental programs, representation/distribution of scientific disciplines, to be effective.
Instructions
For the current academic year, provide the total number of faculty members, predoctorates, and postdoctorates in each participating department and interdepartmental program, regardless of whether this is a predoctoral or postdoctoral program application. Faculty members should be counted more than once if they participate in a departmental as well as an interdepartmental program(s). Predoctorates and postdoctorates should be counted only once and in association with a single department or interdepartmental program.
For each participating department, division, or interdepartmental program enter the following counts for the current academic year:
Participating Department or Program. List the name of the Department, Division, or Interdepartmental Program.

Rationale
This information allows reviewers to assess the distribution of participating faculty by rank (junior vs. senior), by research interests, and by department or interdepartmental program. In addition, data on the mentoring records of faculty permit an evaluation of the experience of participating faculty in facilitating the progression of predoctorates and postdoctorates in their careers. The data concisely summarize information about the training faculty.
Instructions
List participating faculty in alphabetical order by last name. For each participating faculty member, provide:
Name. Include the full name in the format Last Name, First Name and Middle Initial.
Degree(s). Provide the faculty member’s terminal degree(s).
Rank. Provide the academic rank held by each faculty (e.g., Asst. Prof. for Assistant Professor, Assoc. Prof. for Associate Professor, Prof. for Professor, Res. Asst. Prof. for Research Assistant Professor, Instructor).
Primary Department or Program. List the primary affiliation (department, interdepartmental program, or other academic unit).
Research Interest. Provide the faculty member’s research interest relevant to the proposed training program.
Training Role. Provide up to three role(s) for each faculty in the proposed training program, selected from the following options: PD/PI, Preceptor, Executive Committee member (Exec. Comm.), Other Committee member (Other Comm.), Other.
Mentoring Record (Items 7-12). For the last 10 years, provide the record for mentoring predoctorates and postdoctorates who have been or are currently engaged in research training under the faculty member’s primary supervision. Exclude predoctorates doing research rotations, and clinical interns and residents unless they have been or are currently engaged in full-time, mentored research training in the faculty member’s research group.
Predoctorates in Training. Provide the number of predoctorates who are currently in training.
Predoctorates Graduated. Provide the number of predoctorates who were awarded their doctoral degree during the last 10 years.
Predoctorates Continued in Research or Related Careers. Provide the number of predoctorates who were awarded their doctoral degree during the last 10 years and who currently are engaged in a research-intensive or research-related career. Research-related positions generally require a doctoral degree, and may include activities such as teaching, administering research or higher education programs, science policy, and technology transfer.
Postdoctorates in Training. Provide the number of postdoctorates who are currently in training in the faculty member’s laboratory.
Postdoctorates Completed Training. Provide the number of postdoctorates who completed postdoctoral training in the faculty member’s laboratory during the last 10 years.
Postdoctorates Continued in Research or Related Careers. Provide the number of postdoctorates who completed postdoctoral training during the last 10 years and who currently are engaged in a research-intensive or research-related career.
Summarize these data in the Research Training Program Plan, within the Background Section and the Program Faculty Section of the Program Plan. Use the narrative to describe the distribution of participating faculty by academic rank, department or interdepartmental program, areas of research emphasis, and the rationale for the faculty selected to participate in the training grant. Analyze the data in terms of the overall experience of the faculty in training predoctorates and/or postdoctorates. Comment on the inclusion of faculty whose mentoring records may suggest limited, recent training experience at either training level (predoctoral or postdoctoral).

Grant Title. Provide the full grant title. Do not list all training and related grants at the participating institution(s); list only those with any overlapping faculty (i.e., including any of the same faculty members participating in the proposed training program).
Award Number. Provide the full award number.
Project Period. Provide project period dates inclusive of the entire project period, in the format MM/YYYY-MM/YYYY
PD/PI. Provide the name of the PD/PI(s), in the format Last Name, First Name and Middle Initial.
Number of Predoctoral Positions. Provide the number of full-time predoctoral training positions. In the Total row, sum the number of predoctoral positions across all awards and enter the total in bold font.
Number of Postdoctoral Positions. Provide the number of full-time postdoctoral training positions. In the Total row, sum the number of postdoctoral positions across all awards and enter the total in bold font.
Number of Short-Term Positions. Provide the number of short-term training positions. In the Total row, sum the number of short-term positions across all awards and enter the total in bold font.
Number of Participating Faculty (Number Overlapping). Provide the total number of participating faculty members and, parenthetically, the number of participating faculty members who are also named in this application (overlapping faculty).
Names of Overlapping Faculty. List the last names of all overlapping faculty.
Summarize these data in the Background Section of the Research Training Program Plan. Use the narrative to summarize the level of research training support at the institution and describe any relevant restrictions on that support (e.g., whether it is targeted to specific groups of trainees, such as early- or late-stage graduate students, medical students, etc.). Provide an explanation for instances where the tabular data indicate that there may be substantial overlap of participating faculty.

For each category of entrants as defined in Part I, items 4-6, enter the mean number of months of prior, full-time research experience and range. For many individuals, this value will reflect months of summer research experience or full-time research experience following college. For those with part-time, academic-year research experience for academic credit, convert the part-time experience to full time for reporting here (e.g., 15 hours/week for 8 months = 3 months). Do not include labs associated with a course (e.g. organic chemistry course with lab).
Prior Institutions. For each category of entrants as defined in Part I, items 4-6, enter the names of their prior institutions. For predoctorates, this will be their bachelor’s-degree granting institutions. If more than one entrant has the same prior institution, list the institution only once, followed by the number of entrants in parentheses.
Percent with a Disability For each category of entrants as defined in Part I, items 4-6, enter the percent of individuals with disabilities, defined as those with a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more major life activities.
Percent from Underrepresented Racial & Ethnic Groups. For each category of entrants as defined in Part I, items 4-6, enter the percent of individuals from racial and ethnic groups that have been shown by the National Science Foundation to be underrepresented in biomedical research on a national basis (i.e., Black or African Americans, Hispanic or Latinos, American Indians or Alaska Natives, Native Hawaiians and other Pacific Islanders).
Mean GPA (range). For each category of applicants and entrants as defined in Part I, items 2-6, enter the mean GPA and range, using a 4.0 scale.
For each additional year, enter the prior year in the format “Previous Year: 2012-2013 until all five years are completed, and complete the sections as described above. In the final section of Part II, provide the mean values for all years of support.
Summarize these data in the Program Plan (Trainee Candidate Section) of the Research Training Program Plan. Analyze the data in terms of the overall numbers of potential trainees, their credentials, characteristics, and eligibility for support, and enrollment trends.

Rationale
These data permit the evaluation of the ability of participating departments/interdepartmental programs to recruit trainees. These data are useful in assessing the selectivity of the admissions process, the competitiveness of the training program, and the appropriate number of training positions to be awarded.
Instructions
In Part I of this table, list the following counts for each major degree type (i.e., PhDs, MDs, Dual Degree Holders, including individuals holding the MD/PhD, DDS/PhD, DVM/PhD, or other dual degrees, and Other Degree Holders) for each of the past 5 years. Depending on the grant cycle, users may choose to report by academic or grant year, but should always begin with the most recently completed year.
Most Recently Completed Year. Enter the most recently completed year in the format “Most Recently Completed Year: 2013-2014”
Total Applicant Pool. Number of individuals who formally applied for training
Applicants Eligible for Support. Number of individuals who formally applied for training and were eligible for support from this grant (In most cases, eligible individuals will be those who are citizens or non-citizen nationals of the U.S. or permanent residents; see the Funding Opportunity Announcement for specific guidance.).
New Entrants to the Program. Number of new entrants to the department/interdepartmental program)
New Entrants Eligible for Support. Number of new entrants to the department/interdepartmental program who were eligible for support from this grant
New Entrants Appointed to this Grant (Renewal/Revision Applications Only). Number of new entrants appointed to this grant (If this is not a Renewal/Revision application, do not include this column.)
Include only those postdoctoral applicants who could be considered candidates for the proposed training program.
Summarize these data in the Program Plan (Trainee Candidate Section) of the Research Training Program Plan. Analyze the data in terms of the overall numbers of potential trainees, their sources, their credentials and eligibility for support, and enrollment trends. The narrative should clearly describe the recruitment process for postdoctoral trainees (e.g., whether candidates are selected from individuals in the laboratories of proposed faculty members or whether there is a formal application process to the training program).
For each additional year, enter the prior year in the format “Previous Year: 2012-2013” until all five years are completed, and complete the sections as described above. In the final section of Part I, provide the mean count for each column.
In Part II of the table, provide the following information about the characteristics of entrants and applicants, for each of the past 5 years (e.g., academic or grant years), beginning with the most recently completed year:
Mean Number of Publications (range). For each category of applicants and entrants as defined in Part I, items 2-6, enter the mean number of publications calculated to one decimal place (e.g., 2.5) and range (e.g., 0-6), at the time of application to the program.
Mean Number of First-Author Publications (range). For each category of applicants and entrants as defined in Part I items 2-6, enter the mean number (calculated to one decimal place) and range of first-author publications at the time of application to the program.
Prior Institutions. For each category of entrants as defined in Part I, items 4-6, enter the names of their prior institutions. For postdoctorates, this will be the names of their doctoral degree-granting institutions. If more than one entrant has the same prior institution, list the institution only once, followed by the number of entrants in parentheses.
Percent with a Disability. For each category of entrants as defined in Part I, items 4-6, enter the percent of individuals with disabilities, defined as those with a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more major life activities.
Percent from Underrepresented Racial and Ethnic Groups. For each category of entrants as defined in Part I, item 4) to item 6), enter the percent of individuals from racial and ethnic groups that have been shown by the National Science Foundation to be underrepresented in biomedical research on a national basis (i.e., Black or African Americans, Hispanic or Latinos, American Indians or Alaska Natives, Native Hawaiians and other Pacific Islanders).
For each additional year, enter the prior year in the format “Previous Year: 2012-2013” until all five years are completed, and complete the sections as described above. In the final section of Part II, provide the mean values for all years of support.
Summarize these data in the Program Plan (Trainee Candidate Section) of the Research Training Program Plan. Analyze the data in terms of the overall numbers of potential trainees, their credentials, characteristics, and eligibility for support, and enrollment trends.

Rationale
For new applications, this table provides information on the effectiveness of the proposed training program.
For renewal applications, this table provides information about the use of predoctoral training positions (e.g., distribution by faculty member, year in program, years of support per trainee). The data also permit an evaluation of the effectiveness of the supported training program in achieving the training objectives of the prior award period(s) for up to 15 years.
Instructions
In Part I, list sequentially, by year of entry into the graduate program, all trainees who have been supported by this grant at any time during the last 15 grant years, including those who did not complete the training program for any reason. If the grant has been active for less than 15 years, list all trainees to date. For training grants with awarded short-term training positions, do not include short-term trainees in this table.
For each trainee, provide:
Trainee. Provide the Trainee name in the format Last Name, First Name and, Middle Initial.
Faculty Member. In the format of Last Name, First Name and Middle Initial., provide up to two primary research training faculty acting as mentors (for trainees, these will be training grant faculty). If not yet selected, indicate “TBD” (to be determined).
Start Date. Provide the calendar month and year of entry into the current degree-granting program in the format MM/YYYY.
Summary of Support During Training. Provide the primary source and type of support during each twelve-month period of training, using TY1 for Training Year 1, TY2 for Training Year 2, etc. For doctoral programs, TY1 will be the year the trainee entered doctoral training and the final Training Year will be the year the degree was granted (for dual-degree programs that do not award both degrees simultaneously, the final Training Year will be the year the last degree was granted). For NIH and other HHS support, list the awarding component and the activity (e.g., CA R01). Bold the grant being reported in this application. For other sources and types of support, use the categories below, and report only the primary source and type of support for each twelve-month period of training.
Sources of Support:
NSF
Other Federal (Other Fed)
University (Univ)
Foundation (Fdn)
Non-US (Non-US)
Other (Other)
Types of Support
Research assistantship (RA)
Teaching assistantship (TA)
Fellowship (F)
Training Grant (TG)
Scholarship (S)
Other
Terminal Degree(s) received and Year(s). If applicable, list the terminal degree(s) received and year(s) awarded. Trainees currently in the program should be designated “in training;” for those who left the graduate program without a degree, report “none.”
Topic of Research Project. Enter the topic of the research project.
Initial Position, Department, Institution, Activity; and Current Position, Department, Institution, Activity. For trainees who completed or left the graduate program, provide their initial and current positions, departments, and institutions. If individuals hold joint appointments/positions, list only the primary position. If information is not available, report “unknown.” Classify each position as predominantly Research-intensive, Research-related, Further Training, or Other. Research-related positions generally require a doctoral degree, and may include activities such as teaching, administering research or higher education programs, science policy, or technology transfer.
Subsequent Grant(s)/Role/Year Awarded. If applicable, list subsequent fellowship, career development, or research grant support obtained from any source, whether as PD/PI or in another senior role (i.e., co-investigator, faculty collaborator, or staff scientist) after the individual completed training. For NIH and other HHS support, list the awarding component, activity, role, and year (e.g., GM R01/Staff Scientist/2011). Up to five grants may be listed.
In Part II, list any current graduate students clearly associated with this grant who have been supported by NIH and other HHS funds but not by this grant, and provide the information described in Part I, items 1-8, above, for each student. “Clearly associated” students are those with a training experience identical to those appointed to this grant, but who are supported by other NIH or HHS awards (e.g., fellowships or research grants).
In Part III (only for new applications and postdoctoral renewal/revision applications requesting an expansion to predoctoral support), list sequentially all students graduating from the proposed program in the last five years who would have been eligible for appointment, if an NIH or other HHS training or related award were available (in most cases, these will be U.S. citizens or permanent residents). For each student, provide the information described in Part I, items 1-3 and 5-8, above.
Summarize the data from Parts I-III (as applicable) in the Research Training Program Plan, either in the Program Plan Section or the Progress Report Section, as appropriate.
For Research Performance Progress Reports (RPPRs), provide updated trainee information in Part I, reflecting new appointments and other changes over the reporting period. Do not include data older than 15 years. In Part II, provide updated information on clearly associated students, reflecting new entrants and other changes over the reporting period. In each subsequent year, continue to add new entrants and provide updated information about current and past clearly associated students until 15 years of data have been completed; do not include data older than 15 years.
In Part IV, report: 1) the percentage of trainees entering 10 years ago and receiving support from this training grant at some point during graduate school who received PhDs or equivalent research doctoral degrees, and 2) the average time to degree for all trainees appointed to this training grant completing PhDs in the last ten years, calculated to one decimal place (e.g., 5.5 years), excluding any officially-approved leaves of absence. Programs that have not received support for at least 10 years should not include the first section of the table the (i.e., the percentage of trainees completing their degrees within 10 years). New programs that have not yet had any trainees complete the PhD should not include this table at all.
In calculating these program statistics, students leaving graduate school to transfer to medical school or other doctoral-level professional programs should be counted as part of the entering pool, but not as having earned a PhD-equivalent degree. Individuals transferring to or from PhD programs in similar fields at other institutions should be excluded from both the entering and graduating cohorts in calculating completion and time to degree.
Time to degree should be calculated as the period from enrollment in a doctoral degree program at the reporting institution to the conferral of a PhD or, in the case of dual-degree programs, both degrees, less any officially-approved leaves of absence. If a student earns a master’s degree from the reporting institution prior to and in conjunction with fulfilling the requirements for the research doctoral degree, or an additional doctoral degree as part of a dual-degree program (e.g., MD/PhD, DDS/PhD), time to degree should be calculated from entry into the first degree program.
For RPPRs, summarize these data in the Accomplishments Section, in responding to the question, “What opportunities for training and professional development has the project provided?”
