Maintain a thorough understanding of HHMI's policies and be able to apply them in several contexts, i.e., MTAs, MTOs and licenses.
Perform MTA Review: efficiently handle MTAs for laboratories at assigned research sites to ensure timely review and negotiation and, if MTA terms are acceptable, processing through execution. This includes:
Review and negotiate MTAs with providers and research institutions;
Advise HHMI laboratory heads and laboratory staff regarding legal obligations under MTAs;
Educate laboratory heads, laboratory staff, research institutions staff, and others involved in the MTA process on HHMI policies as they relate to MTAs;

Perform IIA and License Review: provide timely comments to assigned research institutions on IIAs, options, and licenses, consistent with HHMI policies.
Consult and coordinate with others in OGC and at HHMI, including Senior Director‑Scientific Officers and Senior Director‑Scientific Program Officers, as appropriate, on MTA, MTO, and license issues.
Update and maintain electronic databases associated with MTAs, MTOs, and licenses in a timely manner.
