To: All MU Research Faculty,
Effective Monday, September 25th, responsibility for
oversight and processing of Confidentiality Disclosure/Nondisclosure Agreements
(CDA, NDA), and incoming/outgoing Material Transfer Agreements (MTA) will occur
at the Office of Sponsored Programs Administration (OSPA). Foremost
in this effort is the continued protection of investigator’s confidential
information and the preservation of information being shared, as well as the
protection and ownership of intellectual property.
Please continue to send these documents with relevant and appropriate
contact information directly to MU’s central processing inbox for these
agreements at agmts@missouri.edu.
If you have an in-process agreement currently pending, the Office of
Technology Management & Industry Relations (OTMIR) will work with you to
finalize those documents. New agreements and inquiries following
Monday’s effective date will be administered in the Office of Sponsored
Programs.
Chase Bunger, Senior Compliance Manager in OSPA will serve as your
point of contact beginning on Monday. He can be reached at bungerc@missouri.edu,
or (573) 882-0275.
