Research Contracts Sample Clauses

A Research Contracts clause defines the terms and conditions under which research activities are conducted between parties, such as universities, companies, or research institutions. It typically outlines the scope of work, funding arrangements, intellectual property rights, confidentiality obligations, and reporting requirements related to the research project. By clearly establishing each party's roles and responsibilities, this clause helps prevent misunderstandings, ensures compliance with legal and ethical standards, and facilitates smooth collaboration throughout the research process.

Research Contracts. Where Parties of the LIA enter into contracts with third party organisations for research purposes, such research contracts may be negotiated by CNRS with approval by the Steering Committee, except in exceptional circumstances and on request of the scientific coordinators. CNRS shall keep the other Parties informed of the results of all negotiations. The latter shall dispose of thirty (30) working days to respond, after which the negotiation is deemed approved. The research contracts which the Parties wish to establish, within the framework of the LIA, with public or private, French or foreign third parties organisations are signed by all the Parties. Research contracts are managed by the Party which conducted the corresponding negotiations. Nevertheless, the LIA’s Steering Committee may wish another Party to manage one or more contracts. In this case, it shall inform each Party. Non-disclosure clauses in these research contracts shall not prevent the relevant researchers from being entitled to mention their work in their activity report, which does not represent disclosure within the meaning of intellectual property legislation. The research contracts shall explicitly include provision for general expenses to be incurred by the host laboratories where the contractual activities shall be performed. The corresponding amounts, fixed jointly by the Parties, shall be reflected in the LIASFMA budget prepared by each party pursuant to Article 8. For research contracts managed by the CNRS and including non-permanent staff expenses, an 8% deduction, representing a provision for redundancy, is made on the compensation, exclusive of taxes, but including social security and employer contributions.

Research Contracts. All research contracts that the LIAFV shall execute with third party organizations, public or private, French or foreign, require signature by all Parties. In principle, they shall be negotiated by CNRS, except in exceptional circumstances and on request of the Co-principal Investigators. CNRS shall keep the other Parties informed of the results of all negotiations. The latter shall dispose of fifteen (15) days to respond, after which the negotiation is deemed approved. The research contracts are managed by the Party who negotiated them. However, the LIAFV scientific evaluation committee may request that the management of one or more contract(s) be assigned to another Party. All Parties shall be so informed. The nondisclosure clauses included in such research contracts must not preclude the concerned researchers from including their research in activity reports. The contracts shall explicitly provide provision for general expenses to be incurred by the host laboratories where the contractual activities shall be performed. The corresponding amounts, fixed jointly by the Parties, shall be allocated to the LIAFV budget. In the case of a management by CNRS, research contracts include personnel costs, and a withholding of 8% as a job loss provision contribution shall be deducted from the pre-tax amount of pay, including social and employer charges.
