REVISED PHS 416-1 APPLICATION FORM AVAILABLE NIH GUIDE, Vol. 21, No. 25, July 10, 1992 P.T. 22 Keywords: Biomedical Research Training Grants Administration/Policy+ National Institutes of Health The newly revised Public Health Service Individual National Research Service Award application form -- PHS 416-1 -- is available. This revision, dated 10/91, and approved through 10/31/94, replaces the current version that was revised 7/88, reprinted with a 4/89 date, and approved through 4/30/91. Applicants should use the new form starting with the September 10, 1992, receipt date, although the older, 4/89 revision will be accepted for that deadline. Applicants submitting for deadlines after September 1992 must use the new form. The newly revised fellowship application contains a number of changes that should facilitate the application process. Some of the more important changes include: o The review and award schedule for the Alcohol, Drug Abuse and Mental Health Administration (ADAMHA) and the Agency for Health Care Policy and Research (AHCPR) has been added. ADAMHA and AHCPR use the same receipt dates as the National Institutes of Health (NIH), but have a different review and award schedule. o The Introduction section has been expanded to provide information on the level of fellowships (predoctoral, postdoctoral, and senior) available at the three PHS funding agencies, and what, if any, budget information is requested in the application. o Item 17. Applicant's Training/Employment, on form page 2, was modified to consolidate non-degree training, other research and professional experience, and employment into one item. o A request for the name, institution, and department of individuals submitting reference letters was added to Section 3 of the Table of Contents, form page 3. This information will be helpful in avoiding potential conflict of interest situations in review. o An explanation of the required documentation regarding gender and minority representation in study populations has been added to the instructions for the research proposal (page 10). o The Assurances/Certifications sections on the Checklist page have been reformatted and updated. All the updates are in Section II-Sponsoring Institution, and include a revised Misconduct in Science assurance, and a new assurance on Age Discrimination.
