Abstract: HRSA is requesting reinstatement of the Biographical
Sketch Form for use with applications to the Maternal and Child Health
Bureau Research Grants (Biographical Sketch) for HRSA's SF424 Research
& Related application package. These grants are funded by a number of
authorities such as 42 U.S.C. 701(a)(2) (title V, 501(a)(2) of the
Social Security Act) and by 42 U.S.C. 280i-1(f) (title III, section
399BB(f) of the Public Health Service Act. The purpose of these grants
is to advance the health and well-being of Maternal and Child Health
populations and children and adolescents with autism spectrum disorder
by supporting innovative, applied, and translational intervention
research studies on critical issues affecting these populations.
A 60-day notice published in the Federal Register on March 1, 2023,
vol. 88, No. 40; pp. 12953-54. There were no public comments.
Need and Proposed Use of the Information: HRSA plans to use the
Biographical Sketch as a required element of the SF424 Research &
Related application package. The applicants use the Biographical Sketch
form to summarize the qualifications of each key personnel on their
proposed research team, including education/training, positions and
honors, contributions to science, and related experience. The grant
reviewers will use this information to assess the capabilities of the
research team to carry out the planned research project. The
Biographical Sketch form also collects demographic data for the
Principal Investigator and key program staff. HRSA is considering
several changes for the Biographical Sketch:
Clarifying instructions: Provides the applicant more
information on what should and should not be included on the
biographical sketch.
Removal of Section D: Section D: Related Experience has
been removed.
Removal of Section E: Section E: Additional Information:
Research Support and/or Scholastic Performance Awards has been removed.
``Some Other Race'' Category: At the request of our
applicants, this category was added.
Likely Respondents: Respondents are applicants to HRSA's Maternal
and Child Health Bureau research programs.
Burden Statement: Burden includes the time expended by persons to
generate, maintain, retain, disclose, or provide the information
requested. This includes the time needed to review instructions; to
develop, acquire, install, and utilize technology and systems for the
purpose of collecting, validating and verifying information, processing
and maintaining information, disclosing and providing information. It
also accounts for time to train personnel, respond to a collection of
information, search data sources; complete and review the collection of
information, and transmit or otherwise disclose the information. The
total annual burden hours estimated for this ICR are summarized in the
table below.
