INSTRUCTIONS FOR FILLING OUT ON-LINE ORDER AND
MATERIAL TRANSFER AGREEMENT (MTA)
We have had a number of problems with orders and material transfer
agreements (MTAs), so we have prepared instructions to shorten the
time for processing orders. The MTA is a legal document. Therefore,
please read these instructions completely before placing your order.
- This application works best using Internet Explorer 5.0 or above.
-
Please click the TAB key between fields. Do not click ENTER until
you have completed your order or you will submit an incomplete order.
- Please
do not complete the order form using all capital letters.
- Spell
out the name of your institution. Please do not use abbreviations.
-
The
Recipient Scientist is the investigator who will use the mice or
embryos and is therefore required to sign the Material Transfer
Agreement (MTA)
as the Recipient Scientist. Please list the Recipient Scientist’s
complete address (building name, room number, street, city, state and
zipcode), his or her telephone number, fax number and e-mail address. Do
not use the address at the animal facility where the mice
or embryos will be delivered. (Shipping information should be entered
in the Shipping Information field). NOTE: Investigators
funded by the Howard Hughes Medical Institute should also list the
Howard
Hughes Medical Institute
along with the Recipient Scientist’s institution, for example,
University of Utah/Howard Hughes Medical Institute.
-
The Authorized
Recipient Official is an individual at the Recipient Scientist’s
institution who is authorized to review and
sign legal documents on behalf of the Recipient Scientist’s institution.
This individual usually works in the Recipient Scientist’s institutional
Technology Transfer Office, Grants and Contracts Office, Licensing
Office, Dean or Provost’s Office, etc. If you are unclear as
to who should sign the Material Transfer Agreement, please contact
one of these offices listed above for this information. Please enter
the name, job title, telephone number, fax number and e-mail address
of the Authorized Recipient Official. NOTE: The Authorized Recipient
Official is rarely the Recipient Scientist or the person who is receiving
the mice in the animal facility.
- Return two (2) originals with original
signatures for each order.
- PLEASE REVIEW THE SPELLING AND ACCURACY
OF YOUR INFORMATION BEFORE SUBMITTING THE ORDER.
CAUTION: Failure
to read and follow these instructions could cause your MTA
to be returned to you, which will delay your order.
If you have any questions regarding the MTA after reading
the above instructions, please contact Marie Priest at 301-435-3036.
All other ordering questions should be directed to Debra
Fitzgerald at 301-846-1544.
