Objectives:

In the world of academic research, collaboration is key - whether between institutions, with industry partners or across international borders. However, with collaboration comes the need for clear and effective agreements to manage the transfer of materials and sharing of data. In this ICTS Clinical Lecture Series, we will delve into the critical components of Material Transfer Agreements (MTAs) and Data Use Agreements (DUAs), two essential legal instruments that safeguard intellectual property, confidentiality, and compliance in the research setting.

Key topics to be covered include:

  • Understand the basics: What are MTAs and DUAs, and why are they important in higher education research settings?

  • Key legal considerations: Explore the legal frameworks that govern the transfer and sharing of materials and data, including IP rights, privacy regulations and various state and federal laws that may apply.

  • Best practices at the University of Iowa: Learn how to navigate the complexities of MTA and DUA terms and conditions and the processes that relate to the University of Iowa research enterprise.
