Research Alert: Jackson Laboratory MTA

Jackson Laboratory MTA

Please reply to: Tammy Chan (tammy.chan@utoronto.ca)

MICE from Jackson Laboratory are available to nonprofit research institutions for internal research use under a Material Transfer Agreement (MTA). In the past each time mice were ordered from Jackson Labs, the University of Toronto had to sign an MTA, but now we have extablished a Master MTA with Jackson Laboratory. UT researchers may order the MICE directly from www.jax.org and reference our Master MTA. All UT researchers must comply with the terms of the agreement. For a copy please contact innovations.partnerships@utoronto.ca or tjlca@jax.org.

In short:
• material can be used solely for academic research and teaching, not commercial purposes
• material cannot be transferred without the written consent of Jackson Labs
• modification to the material that is considered a discovery or improvement must be disclosed to Jackson Labs and they may request a viable sample of the material which incorporates the modification
