Licensing Agreement Signed for RTECS
On December 18, 2001, CDC's Technology Transfer Office, on behalf of NIOSH, successfully completed negotiating a "PHS Trademark Licensing Agreement" for RTECS. This non-exclusive licensing agreement provided for the transfer and continued development of the "RTECS Database and its Trademark" to MDL Information Systems, Inc. ("MDL"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Elsevier Science, Inc. In 2007, MDL was acquired by Symyx Technologies, Inc. ("Symyx"). Under the licensing agreement, Symyx continues to be responsible for updating, licensing, and marketing and distributing RTECS.
