    Need and Use of Information Collection: The National Cancer 
Institute, Division of Cancer Epidemiology and Genetics (DCEG) Office 
of Education administers a variety of programs and initiatives to 
recruit pre-college through post-doctoral educational level individuals 
into the Intramural Research Program to facilitate their development 
into future biomedical scientists. DCEG trains post-doctoral, doctoral 
candidates, graduate and baccalaureate students, through full time 
fellowships, summer fellowships, and internships in preparation for 
research careers in cancer epidemiology and genetics. The proposed 
information collection involves brief online applications completed by 
applicants to the full time and the summer fellowship programs. Full-
time fellowships include: Full-time Equivalents (FTE) and non-FTE 
fellowships for US citizens, permanent residents and international 
fellows. These applications are essential to the administration of 
these training programs as they enable OE 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 DCEG 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 175 hours.
