SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title of Collection: Account Management Profile.
OMB Control No.: 3145-0269.
Expiration Date of Approval: Not applicable.
Abstract: The purpose of the National Science Foundation's (NSF)
Account Profile is to collect information (contact, demographics,
professional and academic references) on <a href="http://Research.gov">Research.gov</a>. This profile
will assist the NSF in maintaining a centralized registration and
profile management process for individuals. NSF may track information
provided over time to review and evaluate NSF programs, facilitate
proposal submission, simplify reviewer activities, and provide data for
the selection and management of reviewers and related merit review
functions. Collecting this information supports the program officers
across each directorate by improving efficiencies for internal staff,
leveraging consolidated profile data, and creating a seamless user
experience for the scientific community. This process will also provide
researchers with a consolidated profile and access to their information
in the <a href="http://Research.gov">Research.gov</a> system, with the ability to easily access and
update their information as necessary.
Respondents: Researchers and administrative support professionals.
Estimated Number of Annual Respondents: 606,678.
Burden on the Public: Estimated 5 minutes to fill out the contact,
demographics, professional and academic information, including the
collection of data to fill in the fields. This assumption includes
users who have filled out information in the past and do not wish to
update their information. The demographic information should be readily
available as the selection fields are available on <a href="http://Research.gov">Research.gov</a> today
and the professional information can be gathered from external data
sources. The estimated burden time is 50,557 hours.
Dated: December 2, 2025.
