Checklist
A checklist has been developed for researchers to check the agreement and indemnity, if applicable, before they are submitted to the Office of Ethics and Research Governance.
If the checklist highlights any of the details as incorrect, please arrange corrections prior to submission of the documents.
The checklist does not apply to the investigator-initiated, company supported study template.
Research collaboration Agreement
(Number of originals required = minimum 2; 1 for each party)
Material Transfer Agreements (MTA)
(Number of originals required = minimum 2; 1 for each party)
A MTA governs the exchange of materials between two organisations, usually for research purposes and should be used for the transfer of tissue and other material. There are two types of MTAs: incoming and outgoing. An outgoing MTA is used when Alfred Health is providing materials to an external organisation.
An incoming MTA is provided by the relevant institution to an Alfred Health researcher requesting materials from an external source.
Amendments or Addenda to Agreements
(Number of originals required = minimum 2; 1 for each party)
Once the Agreement has been signed, any revisions to the Agreement are done via Amendment or Addendum to the Agreement. Many Sponsors have their own template. Alfred Health has created a template which can be used if the Sponsor does not have a template.
