The transfer of materials into and out of MIT is steadily increasing each year. Moreover, the providers and recipients for these materials are diversifying.

Material Transfer Agreements (MTAs) are legal contracts that ensure all parties are permitted to send and receive biological materials, chemical compounds, and other materials. MTAs protect MIT’s intellectual property and freedom to publish, and MTAs record the terms and conditions for the use of the materials.

Come and join Emily Moscati to learn about MIT's Material Transfer process. Gain a better understanding of MTAs, MIT’s procedures and policies for MTAs, and how to get your materials expeditiously.

Copyright issues affect musicians, photographers, and software developers alike. As such, copyrights offer a unique and fun look at the protection of your works of authorship whether created at MIT or elsewhere.

Join Daniel Dardani, Technology Licensing Officer and IP Coordinator of MIT’s Game Lab for an overview of Copyright law and issues, including its history, use, and relevance to the MIT Community as one form of intellectual property. Daniel will explore the nature of originality, doctrine of fair use, how copyrights function in the digital age, and more. All are welcomed.
