<b>Are You In or Out? An Overview of the Material Transfer Process at MIT</b><br>
<br>
<i>Emily Moscati, MTA Associate Officer</i><br>
<br>
Fri Jan 9, 10:00AM-11:30AM <br>
Room 66-160<br>
<br>
The transfer of materials into and out of MIT is steadily increasing each year. Moreover, the providers and recipients for these materials are diversifying. <br>
<br>
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. <br>
<br>
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. <br>

Copyright law affects musicians, photographers, and software developers alike. As such, copyrights offer unique and fun protection for your works of authorship created while at MIT. <br>
<br>
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.

<b>Get a Patent on your Invention & Turn it Into a Startup!</b><br>
<i>Christopher Noble</i><br>
Thur Jan 15, 12:30PM - 2:00PM<br>
Room 3-133<br>
<br>
You've invented something really cool. Can you get a patent? Can you create a company around it? <br>
<br>
Come and hear Christopher Noble, Technology Licensing Officer of the MIT Technology Licensing Office. Learn how and when to file a patent (and if you need to); how your startup can spin the invention out from MIT and get that coveted “exclusive license”; how
MIT’s Technology Licensing Office can help you and what investors are looking for when they ask you: “What about your IP”.
