If you want to receive, or share, specialized research material from, or with, another organization, we will draft, negotiate and execute a Material Transfer Agreement (MTA). You may choose either format linked below, based on your role and circumstances: - MTA Request for Provider Scientist (webform version): This form is for a UAlbany faculty member or student providing biological research materials to another institution, company and/or individual, solely for non-commercial research purposes. It contains prefilled name of Director of the Office of Technology Transfer as a Provider Organization Authorized Official. - MTA Request for Recipient Scientist (webform version): This form is for a UAlbany faculty member or student receiving biological research materials from another institution, company and/or individual, solely for non-commercial research purposes. It contains prefilled name of Director of Office of Technology Transfer as a Recipient Organization Authorized Official. Notes: - "Authorized Official" is the name of institutional official who can make legal commitments on behalf of the institution or company. - When completing the webform version of the agreement, please fill out the Original Material / Research purpose (1-2 sentences) – (e.g., Name of unique cell line). - If the other Party to the agreement will not accept our template as written, please complete the Material Transfer Agreement (MTA) for Provider Scientist Word Template or Material Transfer Agreement (MTA) for Recipient Scientist Word Template and send it to UATTO@albany.edu.
