Office of Technology Transfer (OTT) |
|
|
|
| Mission: |
| The Office of Technology transfer facilitates cooperation among NIEHS, NIH scientists, the commercial biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries, and academic institutions to make publicly funded biomedical research data available for human health. |
|
| Function: |
| Reviews and approves Material Transfer Agreements (MTAs), Cooperative Research and Development Agreements (CRADAs), Employee Invention Reports (EIRs), and biologic license applications within NIH established policies so that NIEHS can conduct and share research data with the private sector. Office of Technology Transfer serves as the focal point for bringing together shared research objectives among scientists in the United States, Europe, and Asia and advises NIEHS scientists about NIH policies and procedures. Coordinates these technology transfer functions with the NIH Office of Technology Transfer, Bethesda, Deans and/or Research Provosts in academia, and Directors of Research/Medial Affairs in commercial organizations. |
