periodic summaries of proposed projects to be submitted to the Office 
of Management and Budget (OMB) for review and approval.
    Written comments and/or suggestions from the public and affected

instruments must be requested in writing.
    Comment Due Date: Comments regarding this information collection 
are best assured of having their full effect if received within 60 days 
of the date of this publication.
    Proposed Collection: The Study of the Global Cancer Project Map, 
0925-NEW, National Cancer Institute (NCI), National Institutes of 
Health (NIH).
    Need and Use of Information Collection: This is a new information 
collection request for the Study of the Global Cancer Project Map 
(GCPM) for three years. Information will be collected from health care 
professionals and researchers in an effort to catalog international 
efforts related to cancer research, care, and outreach by integrating 
cancer control program and research project information from various 
organizations worldwide.
    The Global Cancer Project Map (GCPM) is a new, interactive, web-
based tool that enables healthcare professionals and researchers to 
make informed decisions, initiate partnerships, and develop ideas for 
collaborations in cancer control. Its features allow people to (1) 
search for collaborators and projects by cancer type, project type, and 
country; (2) visualize information pertinent to each project on an 
interactive world map; (3) initiate contact with principal 
investigators and program directors; and (4) overlay heat maps of 
epidemiological measures that provide a representation of the burden of 
cancer by country.
    The primary goals of GCPM are to facilitate the building of 
collaborations across organizations; accelerate progress, ensure a 
balanced investment of resources, and align global cancer care and 
control efforts; and continue data collection from national and 
international organizations to develop the Map as a resource to view 
and better understand international efforts in cancer research and 
control.
    OMB approval is requested for 3 years. There are no costs to 
respondents other than their time. The total estimated annualized 
burden hours are 167.
