Abstract: This collection under 0925-0002 expiration date 01/31/2026 is being revised to update the non-competing progress report collections for the implementation of the final NIH Policy for Data Management and Sharing (DMS Policy) to promote the management and sharing of scientific data generated from NIH-funded or conducted research and other updates to institutional training grant and fellowship applications. Starting in Fiscal Year 2025, NIH will require recipients to submit and address Data Management and Sharing (DMS) Plans within the Research Performance Progress Report (RPPR) in accordance with the DMS Policy. The progress report forms will be updated to align with this requirement. Effective January 2025, NIH will be updating institutional training grant applications; relevant to progress reports, the Training Data Tables will be updated to reduce burden and promote consistent information collection, including limiting the scope of information collection to data only relevant to the training stage(s) of the proposed program in Table 1 and removing instructions in Table 8 that are reported within the RPPR. Effective for May 2025, NIH will adopt the Common Forms for Biographical Sketch and Current and Pending (Other) Support as part of the directive from Guidance for Implementing National Security Presidential Memorandum (NSPM)-33. The Common Forms are part of a separate OMB collection, approved under 3145-0279 (Expiration Date 10/31/2026). Elements that will be collected within the Common Forms will be removed from NIH’s current NIH Biosketch and Other Support formats. NIH will continue to collect information not captured on the Common Forms to adhere to the agency’s implementation of the NIH Peer Review Regulations at 42 CFR Part 52 as part of the NIH Biosketch form, to be renamed the NIH Biographical Sketch Supplement, to reflect the supplemental information requested. The application and progress report forms and associated instructions will be updated to align with these new requirements.

Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: This revision request includes an estimated increase of 50,098 burden hours to align with the changes being implemented to the RPPR and Final RPPR for the collection of progress report information on the approved DMS Plan provide a structured, rather than free text, mechanism to report on information that was already required with the implementation of the 2023 NIH DMS Policy. The changes to the Training Data Tables are streamlining and clarifying the field elements and instructions but are not inherently changing the overall information being collected. The information collection that will be retained when the NIH Biographical Sketch Supplement replaces the NIH Biosketch format are the narrative portions of that instrument that account for the majority of the burden. The addition of the NIH Biographical Sketch Supplement does not increase the overall burden as it will replace the NIH Biosketch Format upon its implementation. In summary, the overall estimates to burden are not anticipated to change. The new estimated total annualized burden hours are 629,088 hours. NIH is engaging in on-going efforts to evaluate the assessment of burden estimates how to improve them.
