University will furnish Sponsor with a copy of any proposed publication or presentation of the final report at least thirty (30) days before submission of such proposed publication or presentation, or at least five (5) days before submission of any proposed abstracts, of the results of the Research Project to allow Sponsor to review such materials to identify any patentable inventions or any inadvertent disclosure of Proprietary Information. Sponsor may not edit the materials or limit dissemination of the research results in any other way. If negative findings are to be included in University’s final report, thirty (30) days before submission of any proposed publication or presentation or at least five (5) days before submission of any proposed abstracts, Sponsor reserves the right to take immediate action to begin remediation efforts and have any efforts to comply with recommendations be documented in such publications, presentations and/or reports of the Research Project. Sponsor shall send University its recommendations and notice of remediation efforts within the timeframes set forth herein for University to add the remediations that address any concern of the Research Project to any such publications, presentations and/or reports. If Sponsor decides a patent application should be filed, the publication or presentation will be delayed an additional thirty (30) days or until a provisional patent application is filed, whichever is sooner. Following receipt of Sponsor’s written request within the applicable review period, University will remove Sponsor's Proprietary Information as identified by Sponsor. If University does not receive a request from Sponsor within the specified review period, Sponsor will be deemed to have no objection and University will be free to publish such material.
