Science Commons MTA Generator Testing

To the left of this message you will see a linkage to a Science Commons Material Transfer Agreement Link. This is a dummy demonstration of the use of a Science Commons MTA for possible application in Access and Benefit-Sharing debates under the CBD. The example here restricts the MTA to non-commercial uses of the offered material for research on Dengue as a WHO listed Neglected Tropical Disease. To test this tool for yourself go to http://mta.sciencecommons.org/chooser

Hi, just adding the links to the Sociomics Core Facility video tutorials.

The tutorials cover two main topics:

1. Introductions to using our very own iGoogle like Research Desktop
2. Digital analytics tutorials using different software tools with a focus on synthetic biology.

You can find the videos on blip.tv here or the rss feed for updates. Or visit us at our home page. Don't say we didn't warn you! Paul
