MRC licensing opportunities – research tools and reagents

The Medical Research Council (MRC) aims to make the valuable research tools and reagents generated by MRC scientists accessible to the wider scientific community. LifeArc manages these on behalf of the MRC for academic research use and commercial licensing.

For academic research, we can help get a standard Material Transfer Agreement (MTA) in place. For commercial purposes, materials are licensed on a non-exclusive basis for sale as catalogue reagents, in-house R&D purposes, and other commercial applications. Once a license or MTA is in place, materials will be released from our partner repositories or academics labs.
