EXISTING INFORMATION COLLECTION WITHOUT AN OMB NUMBER, National Cancer
Institute (NCI), National Institutes of Health (NIH).
Need and Use of Information Collection: The National Cancer
Institute, Division of Cancer Prevention, Cancer Prevention Fellowship
Program (CPFP) administers a variety of programs and initiatives to
recruit post-doctoral educational level individuals into the Intramural
and extramural Research Program to facilitate their development into
future scientists. CPFP trains post-doctoral fellows through full time
fellowships in preparation for research careers in cancer prevention
and control. The proposed information collection involves brief online
applications completed by applicants to the full time and the summer
curriculum programs. Full-time fellowships include: Non-FTE fellowships
for U.S. citizens and permanent residents and fellows that are part of
the Irish Consortia. These applications are essential to the
administration of these training programs as they enable CPFP to
determine the eligibility and quality of potential awardees; to assess
their potential as future scientists; to determine where mutual
research interests exist; and to make decisions regarding which
applicants will be proposed and approved for traineeship awards. In
each case, completing the application is voluntary, but in order to
receive due consideration, the prospective trainee is encouraged to
complete all relevant fields. The information is for internal use to
make decisions about prospective fellows and students that could
benefit from the CPFP program.
OMB approval is requested for 3 years. There are no costs to
respondents other than their time. The total estimated annualized
burden hours are 400.
