• Publication Date. A date field indicating the publication date of the conference proceedings. If a conference is funded, the proceedings and resulting published records may have dates that are subsequent to the conference. For the fullest use of the funded research, the publication date provides timeframe context for application of the science in the future. Intellectual Property—Inventions

The following three fields supplement the existing RPPR data fields on invention reporting and will be used only if the awarding office elects to use the RPPR for interim contract reporting. These fields support certain invention reporting requirements for contracts awarded under Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 27, Patents, Data, and Copyrights, and Defense FAR Supplement Part 227, Patents, Data, and Copyrights. The RPPR may be used to collect these data fields in lieu of collecting them on other existing reporting mechanisms used for contracts, such as the DD Form 882, Report of Inventions and Subcontracts.

• Address of Employer. A text field indicating the address of the inventor’s employer.

• National Academy Member. A Yes/ No field to indicate if a participant on the project is, or became, a National Academy of Science member during the reporting period. This data is used for statistical purposes to determine the number of National Academy members participating in the funded research. Special Reporting Requirements

• Clinical trial(s) issues. A text field for use in awards involving clinical trials to describe any enrollment issues, retention problems, and adverse event/ unanticipated problems involving risks to subjects or others, and actions or plans for mitigation. DoD Instruction 3216.02, Protection of Human Subjects and Adherence to Ethical Standards in DoD-Supported Research, requires that any changes to previously-approved clinical trials be reported for review by the DoD Human Research Protection Official.

The following two fields are for awards to Historically Black Colleges and Universities and Minority-Serving Institutions (HBCU/MI), to help evaluate the outcomes of HBCU/MI investments:

• Number of undergraduate and graduate student Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) participants. A numeric field to indicate the number of student participants enrolled in STEM disciplines during the reporting period. This data will be useful in assessing the impact of DoD funding on STEM education at HBCU/ MI.

• Number of student participants that received a STEM degree. A numeric field to indicate the number of student participants that received a STEM degree during the reporting period. This data will be useful in assessing the impact of DoD funding on STEM education at HBCU/MI.
