• New applications. List sequentially, by year of entry, all predoctoral trainees graduating in a field or from a program similar to the proposed program in the last five years who would have been eligible for the proposed program, if an NIH or other HHS training or related award were available (in most cases, these will be citizens or non-citizen nationals of the U.S. or permanent residents). These individuals should match the individuals listed in Table 8.

• Renewal/revision applications. 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 10 grant years, including those who did not complete the training program for any reason. If the grant has been active for less than 10 years, list all trainees to date. These individuals should match the individuals listed in Table 8 for the last 10 years.

2. Faculty Member. List each participating faculty member in the format Last Name, First Name and Middle Initial. In instances where the trainee had multiple mentors, include up to two faculty mentors. Indicate previous participating faculty who are no longer part of the program with an asterisk (*).

3. Past or Current Trainee. Indicate whether each student is past or current.

4. Training Period. For past students, indicate the year that each student enrolled in the degree-granting program and the year they completed or left the degree-granting program, in the format YYYY-YYYY. For current students, report the year of enrollment and indicate that training is underway by using the format YYYY-Present.

5. Publication (Authors, Year, Title, Journal, Volume, Inclusive Pages). List peer-reviewed publications and manuscripts accepted for publication in peer-reviewed journals. Applicants may also include interim research products which the trainee contributed to (such as preprints), but should exclude these if related work has been published or accepted for publication as a peer reviewed manuscript (in such cases, include only the final, peer-reviewed publication). List all publications of students resulting from their association with the current or proposed training program, through completion of their degree. Do not list publications resulting from work done prior to entering the training program or arising from research initiated after the completion of the program.

Table 5B. Publications of Trainees Supported by this Program: Postdoctoral

Rationale

This information provides data about the potential of the training program to foster trainees’ ability to conduct rigorous research that advanced scientific knowledge and technologies with increasing self-direction (i.e., publishable results).

For new applications, this table provides information on trainees who would have been eligible for the proposed training program.

For renewal applications, this table provides information about the outcomes of predoctoral trainees supported by the award.

Instructions

For each trainee, list the following:

1. Trainee Name. List each trainee in the format Last Name, First Name and Middle Initial.

• New applications. List sequentially all postdoctorates completing a training experience in a field or program similar to the proposed program in the last five years who would have been eligible for the proposed program, if an NIH training or related award were available (in most cases, these will be citizens or non-citizen nationals of the U.S. or permanent residents). These individuals should match the individuals listed in Table 8.

• Renewal/revision applications. List sequentially, by year of entry into the program, all trainees who have been supported by this grant at any time during the last 10 grant years, including those who did not complete the training program for any reason. If the grant has been active for less than 10 years, list all trainees to date. These individuals should match the individuals listed in Table 8 for the last 10 years. Exclude individuals appointed to short-term (12 week or less) training experiences with a faculty member.

2. Participating Faculty Member. List each participating faculty member in the format Last Name, First Name and Middle Initial. In instances where the trainee had multiple mentors, include up to two faculty mentors. Mark previous participating faculty who are no longer part of the program with an asterisk(*).

3. Past or Current Trainee. Indicate whether each postdoctorate is past or current.

4. Training Period. Indicate the year that postdoctorates entered into training in association with the program and the year they completed or left the training program, in the format YYYY-YYYY. For current postdoctorates, report the year they started the program or began working with the current faculty member and indicate that training is still underway by using the format YYYY-Present.

5. Publication (Authors, Year, Title, Journal, Volume, Inclusive Pages). List peer-reviewed publications and manuscripts accepted for publication in peer-reviewed journals in chronological order. Applicants may also include interim research products which the trainee contributed to (such as preprints), but should exclude these if the same work has been published or accepted for publication as a peer reviewed manuscript (include only the final, peer-reviewed publication ). List all publications of postdoctorates resulting from their period of training in association with the current or proposed training program. Do not list publications resulting from work done prior to joining the training program or arising from research initiated after the completion of the program. Boldface the postdoctorate’s name in the author list.

• For postdoctorates without a publication, indicate “No Publications.” Provide one of the following explanatory phrases: new entrant, leave of absence, change of research supervisor, left program, other.

Summarize these data in the Program Plan section of the Research Training Program Plan including, for example, the average number of papers published by postdoctorates, the number as first author, and the number of postdoctorates who completed training without any peer-reviewed publications.

Table 8A. Program Outcomes: Predoctoral

Rationale

For new applications, this table provides information on outcomes for trainees who would have been eligible for the proposed training program. These data can provide a baseline to evaluate the effectiveness of any subsequently funded training program in achieving the training objectives.

For renewal applications, this table provides information about the outcomes of predoctoral training positions (e.g., faculty mentor, year(s) in program, area of research, and subsequent career related outcomes). 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

Part I. Those Appointed to the Training Grant

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. If there were any individuals appointed to the training grant as both students and postdoctorates, they should be reported on Table 8A only. For training grants with awarded short-term training positions, do not include short-term trainees in this table.

For each trainee, provide:

1. Trainee. Provide the Trainee name in the format Last Name, First Name and Middle Initial.

2. 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).

3. Start Date. Provide the calendar month and year of entry into the current degree-granting program in the format MM/YYYY (for trainees, this date may precede the appointment to the training grant).

4. 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)

• None: Leave of Absence (LOA)

Types of Support:

• Training Grant (TG)

• Research assistantship (RA)

• Teaching assistantship (TA)

• Fellowship (F)

• R25 Research Education Award (R25)

• Scholarship (S)

• Other

5. 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.”

6. Topic of Research Project. Enter the topic of the research project.

7. Initial Position. For all trainees supported by the grant, including those who completed or left the graduate program, provide their initial positions, departments, and organizations, as applicable after leaving the program (leave blank for students still in the degree-granting program). If individuals hold joint appointments/positions, list only the primary position. If information is not available, report “unknown.” For each position, indicate the workforce sector (i.e., academia, government, for-profit, nonprofit, other) and principal activity (i.e., primarily research, primarily teaching, primarily clinical, research-related, further training, unrelated to research). Research-related positions generally require a doctoral degree and may include activities such as administering research or higher education programs, science policy, or technology transfer.

8. Current Position. For trainees who completed or left the graduate program and have moved on from their initial position, provide their current positions, departments, and organizations, as applicable (leave blank for students who are still in the training program or are still in their initial position). If individuals hold joint appointments/positions, list only the primary position. If information is not available, report “unknown.” For each position, indicate the workforce sector (i.e., academia, government, for-profit, nonprofit, other) and principal activity (i.e., primarily research, primarily teaching, primarily clinical, research-related, further training, unrelated to research). Research-related positions generally require a doctoral degree and may include activities such as administering research or higher education programs, science policy, or technology transfer.

9. 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 entered the training program. For NIH and other HHS support, list the awarding component, activity, role, and year (e.g., GM R35/Staff Scientist/2021). Up to five grants may be listed.

Part II. Recent Graduates

In Part II (only for new applications and postdoctoral renewal/revision applications requesting an expansion to predoctoral support), list sequentially all students graduating in a field or from a program similar to the proposed program in the last five years who would have been eligible for the proposed program, 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 above, except “Summary of Support During Training.”

Summarize the data from Parts I-II (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) and renewal applications, provide updated trainee information in Part I, reflecting new appointments and other changes over the reporting period. D not include data older than 15 years. 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. For the RPPR, summarize these data, along with updated program statistics in Part IV, in the Accomplishments Section, in responding to the question, “What opportunities for training and professional development has the project provided?".

Part III. Program Statistics

In Part III, 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 Ph.Ds. or equivalent research doctoral degrees, and 2) the average time to degree for all trainees appointed to this training grant completing Ph.Ds. in the last ten years, calculated to one decimal place (e.g., 5.5 years). 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 Ph.D. 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 Ph.D.-equivalent degree. Individuals transferring to or from Ph.D. programs in similar fields at other organizations 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 organization to the conferral of a Ph.D. or, in the case of dual-degree programs, both degrees. If a student earns a master’s degree from the reporting organization 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., M.D./Ph.D., D.D.S./Ph.D.), time to degree should be calculated from entry into the first degree program.

Table 8B. Program Outcomes: Postdoctoral

Rationale

For new applications, this table provides information on outcomes for trainees who would have been eligible for the proposed training program. These data can provide a baseline to evaluate the effectiveness of any subsequently funded training program in achieving the training objectives.

For renewal applications, this table provides information about the outcomes of postdoctoral training positions (e.g., faculty mentor, year(s) in program, area of research, and subsequent career related outcomes).

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

Part I. Those Appointed to the Training Grant

In Part I, list sequentially, by year of entry into the postdoctoral research training program, all trainees who have been supported by this grant at any time during the last 15 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. If there were any individuals appointed to the training grant as both students and postdoctorates, they should be reported on Table 8A only.

For each trainee, provide:

1. Trainee. Provide the trainee name in the format Last Name, First Name and Middle Initial.

2. Doctoral Degree(s) and Year(s). Provide the trainee’s doctoral degree(s) and the year(s) awarded.

3. 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).

4. Start Date. Provide the calendar month and year of entry into postdoctoral research training in the format MM/YYYY.  The entering year is the first year of postdoctoral research experience, excluding non-research clinical training (for trainees, this date may precede the appointment to the training grant).

5. 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. Do not list individual mentored career development awards here; they will be captured under grant support obtained as a PD/PI. For NIH 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 training year.

Sources of Support

• NSF

• Other Federal (Other Fed)

• University (Univ)

• Foundation (Fdn)

• Non-US

• Other

• None: Leave of Absence (LOA)

Types of Support

• Training Grant (TG)

• Research grant (RG)

• Fellowship (F)

• R25 Research Education Award (R25)

• Other

6. Degree(s) resulting from Postdoctoral training and Year(s). If applicable, provide any degrees resulting from the postdoctoral training and the year awarded. If the training program does not offer degrees, indicate “none.” Trainees currently in the program should be designated “in training.”

7. Topic of Research Project. Provide the topic of the research project.

8. Initial Position. For all trainees supported by the grant, including those who completed or left the program, provide their initial positions, departments, and organizations, as applicable after leaving the program (leave blank for postdoctorates still in training). If individuals hold joint appointments/positions, list only the primary position. If information is not available, report “unknown.” For each position, indicate the workforce sector (i.e., academia, government, for-profit, nonprofit, other) and principal activity (i.e., primarily research, primarily teaching, primarily clinical, research-related, further training, unrelated to research). Research-related positions generally require a doctoral degree and may include activities such as administering research or higher education programs, science policy, or technology transfer.

9. Current Position. For trainees who completed or left the program and have moved on from their initial position, provide their current positions, departments, and organizations, as applicable (leave blank for postdoctorates who are still in training or are still in their initial position). If individuals hold joint appointments/positions, list only the primary position. If information is not available, report “unknown.” For each position, indicate the workforce sector (i.e., academia, government, for-profit, nonprofit, other) and principal activity (i.e., primarily research, primarily teaching, primarily clinical, research-related, further training, unrelated to research). Research-related positions generally require a doctoral degree and may include activities such as administering research or higher education programs, science policy, or technology transfer.

10. Subsequent Grant(s)/Role/Year Awarded. If applicable, 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). 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.

Part II. Recent Graduates

In Part II (only for new applications and predoctoral renewal/revision applications requesting an expansion to postdoctoral support), list sequentially all postdoctorates completing a training experience in a field or program similar to the proposed program in the last five years who would have been eligible for the proposed program, if an NIH training or related award were available (in most cases, these will be U.S. citizens or permanent residents). For each postdoctorate, provide the information described in Part I above, except “Summary of Support During Training.”

Summarize the data from Parts I-II (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) and renewal applications, provide updated trainee information in Part I, reflecting new appointments and other changes over the reporting period. D not include data that are older than 15 years . In each subsequent year, continue to add new entrants and provide updated information about current and past postdoctorates until 15 years of data have been completed; do not include data older than 15 years. For the RPPR, summarize these data in the Accomplishments Section, in responding to the question, “What opportunities for training and professional development has the project provided?”.
