DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND

Health Resources and Services

Administration

Agency Information Collection

Activities: Submission for OMB

Review; Comment Request

Periodically, the Health Resources

and Services Administration (HRSA)

publishes abstracts of information

collection requests under review by the

Office of Management and Budget, in

compliance with the Paperwork

Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C.

Chapter 35). To request a copy of the

clearance requests submitted to OMB for

review, call the HRSA Reports

Clearance Office on (301)–443–1129.

The following request has been

submitted to the Office of Management

and Budget for review under the

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995:

Proposed Project: HRSA Competing

Training Grant Application,

Instructions and Relating Regulations

(OMB No. 0915–0060)—Revision

The Health Resources and Services

Administration uses the information in

the application to determine the

eligibility of applicants for awards, to

calculate the amount of each award and

to judge the relative merit of

applications. The form is distributed

electronically via the Internet. The

budget is negotiated for all years of the

project period based on this application

and program-specific instructions that

include greater standardization of

content for the project summary and the

detailed description of the project.

The Bureau of Health Professions is

planning to remove from the Code of

Federal Regulations the existing training

grant regulations under 42 CFR parts 57

and 58. It is the intent of the Department

to operate under new statute for

compliance, implementation, and

administration of the training grant

programs under titles VII and VIII of the

PHS Act. The existing regulations are

fundamentally and extensively

inconsistent with the new law which

takes an interdisciplinary approach (and

thus inhibits the achievement of the

statute’s objectives). Program specific

guidance and information for preparing

applications are now provided in the

grant application materials (which

makes them now self-contained).

DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND

HUMAN SERVICES

National Institutes of Health

National Cancer Institute (NCI) and the

NIH Center for Information Technology

(CIT): Opportunity for a Cooperative

Research and Development Agreement

(CRADA) for the Development of

Software Enhancement for Expanding

the Medical Uses of the

TELESYNERGYTM Medical

Consultation Workstation

AGENCY: National Institutes of Health,

PHS, DHHS.

ACTION: Notice.

SUMMARY: The National Cancer Institute

(NCI) and the Center for Information

Technology (CIT) seek a Cooperative

Research and Development Agreement

(CRADA) Collaborator to provide

programming and systems integration

support to NCI for the further

development and commercialization of

the TELESYNERGYTM Medical

Consultation WorkStation.

Over the past six years, the Center for

Information Technology at the National

Institutes of Health has developed

TELESYNERGYTM, a multimedia

medical imaging and personal

interaction infrastructure within an

electronic imaging environment, to

facilitate professional collaboration and

education concerning cancer research

protocols and clinical cancer care.

TELESYNERGYTM has been designed to

provide for the simultaneous highresolution display of images from

numerous medical modalities, in both

real-time and store-and-forward modes,

as well as for the simultaneous

interaction of medical experts and other

research professionals. One example of

implementation of TELESYNERGYTM is

underway within the Radiation

Oncology Branch (ROB) in the National

Cancer Institute. ROB’s initial

applications are in the areas of research

participation in radiotherapy planning

and treatment, and the related

subsequent clinical and research

interactions and collaborations as a

result.

Potential areas of application for the

TELESYNERGYTM platform include

oncology, general medicine, family

practice, and specialties such as OB/
