Training Grant Support: Data Table Guidance
Overview - Table 1
This is the primary table reviewers encounter, offering key context about the grant and an overview of WSU's training environment. It demonstrates to the NIH that WSU has sufficient trainees, faculty, and a diverse representation of scientific disciplines to justify the number of trainees you are requesting.
Overall Instructions
Parts I (Pre-Docs) & II (Post-Docs)
- Only include data from the current academic year.
- Include information for “participating departments, clinical divisions, or interdepartmental programs" by listing PD/PI(s)’ and mentors’ departments, divisions, and/or interdepartmental graduate programs.
- Only provide data for the program’s relevant training stage(s).
- Pre-docs only: Just Part I; omit Part II.
- Post-docs only: Just Part II; omit Part I.
- Combined pre- and post-docs: Both Parts I & II.
- Participating departments should be the same for both Part I and II.
- The focus of this table is on the potential eligible trainees, not on the faculty’s home departments (home departments are disclosed in Table 2). Departments in Table 1 and Table 2 do not have to align.
- Pre-docs (Part I) and post-docs (Part II) must be included if they are part of a participating department regardless of whether the application includes them or not.
- Omit if there are no pre- or post-docs in the participating department(s), respectively.
- If pre-docs have affiliations in more than one participating department, list them according to their primary affiliation only.
- Mentors may be listed more than once if they participate in both a departmental and program but may not be counted more than once in the final total.
- Only count pre- and post-docs once (i.e. within a single department/program).
- Bold all totals in the final row.
- Page Limit: None.
