It is mentioned that specific metrics and outcomes are still being developed. Is there a process in place for developing metrics that address quality, not just quantity of research?
Yes, there is a process under development. Phase II of the STAR METRICS project will begin to address and test the development of potential metrics to be applied. This effort will be a collaborative effort of the participating academic institutions and federal agencies who participate in the STAR METRICS project. Information on Phase II of the STAR METRICS project can be found at the following Federal Demonstration Partnership website: http://sites.nationalacademies.org/PGA/fdp/PGA_057159.
