Procedure for Incoming
Material Transfer Agreements (MTAs)
At the lab or department:
- Before signing an MTA, the
researcher should review the agreement to ensure the terms are
acceptable.
- The researcher should fill
in all information about the material requested, the research
being conducted, a shipping/billing address, etc. Please note:
Arrangements for receiving the material are made between the
researcher and Provider.
- Before sending the MTA to
ICO, the researcher must complete an MTA
Routing Form and have it signed by the Principal Investigator.
The Routing Form may be sent to ICO by fax or campus mail.
Please note: Research involving biohazardous materials,
human samples, or lab animals requires approval from the appropriate
office: IRB,
APLAC, Biosafety
and Radiation before ICO may finalize the MTA.
At ICO:
- After receiving the MTA and
the Routing Form, ICO reviews the agreement to ensure that the
terms are consistent with Stanford Research Policies.
- If the MTA is acceptable,
ICO will sign and send it to the Provider, with a copy to the
Principal Investigator and the ICO files. If not, ICO will negotiate
MTA terms with the Provider.
For any questions about this process, please contact
ICO.
