The various forms of MTA will establish 11 rights and responsibilities regarding the Materials among 12 the University and the Outside Researcher and the 13 researcher’s employer and will minimize future confusion 14 and controversy regarding the use and transfer of the 15 Materials and ownership of Inventions or Materials based 16 on the supplied Materials.
