Original Research Project
This document outlines the responsibilities and rights of the 老虎机攻略GC and its collaborators involved in original research projects (ORPs).
ORPs will start with well-defined scientific goal(s). The 老虎机攻略GC will work closely with collaborators to reach an agreement on the research approaches to take, the estimated timelines for the project, the data to obtain, and the major contents in the final project report. The 老虎机攻略GC will frequently communicate, formally (with written reports) and informally (orally, or short emails), with collaborators on all ORPs. Depending on the data collected, 老虎机攻略GC and collaborators will re-evaluate the ORP at each stage and decide if the project will continue as planned, needs to be re-approached, or stopped altogether.
The collaborator will provide funds for all required consumables and equipment usage (if not available in 老虎机攻略GC or the laboratory of the collaborator), and compensate for the labor and intellectual input of the 老虎机攻略GC. The compensation for 老虎机攻略GC may be an hourly fee ($45/hour) or calculated at a predetermined cost in grant applications.
Should ORP-relevant data be used for publications, the 老虎机攻略GC is entitled to co-authorship on the publication. Should ORP-relevant data or ideas be used for grant applications, 老虎机攻略GC asks to be listed as funded collaborator in the grant proposal. 老虎机攻略GC is happy to assist the writing of the grant proposal for the relevant portion.
