Export Control Ana Ayala

Export Control Some equipment/information is subject to Export Control. Export via people getting access in U.S. Export via international travel/communication. Step 1, we need to keep track of who is working on which project. Export Control Officer, Bill Collins.

Export Control UM Policy: http://uresearch.miami.edu/documents/export/export-p-002_ecpolicy_signed.pdf

Export Control – The Basics

anyone outside the U.S., including a U.S. citizen Export Controls All UM personnel must conduct their affairs in accordance with U.S. export control laws and regulations. Export control laws and regulations restrict the shipment, transmission or transfer of certain items, software, technology and services from the U.S. to foreign countries and their citizens. What is an Export? An export is any oral, written, electronic or visual disclosure, shipment, transfer or transmission of commodities, technology, information, technical data, assistance or software codes to: anyone outside the U.S., including a U.S. citizen a ‘foreign national’ whether in the U.S. (deemed export) or abroad foreign embassy or affiliate 3

Export Controls Common University activities which are subject to export controls, include: travel overseas on University business, whether for a conference, meeting, or to conduct field work collaboration with foreign nationals, whether in the U.S. or abroad conducting tours or visits of research facilities work on sponsored research, even as a subcontractor, with people or entities from a foreign country providing consulting services internationally Common Export Controlled Items Advanced computer, microelectronics and telecommunications High Performance Computers Advanced avionics and navigation, including spaced-related technologies and prototypes Information security and encryption Applied Physics – e.g. lasers and directed energy systems Marine Technologies Bioreactor systems Nanotechnology Biotech and Biomed Engineering Sensors, sensor technology, imaging 3

Export Controls Most research the University undertakes is generally protected from export regulations due to the Fundamental Research Exclusion (NSDD-189) provided it meets ALL 5 of the following conditions: There are no publication restrictions, verbal or written There are no restrictions on foreign national participation, verbal or written The scope of work constitutes basic or applied research The scope of work does not constitute development Research project is conducted at an accredited institution of higher learning in the U.S. If any one of the above conditions is not met, your research is subject to export control and you should contact the Export Control Officer. EVEN if your work is not controlled you may still be using equipment that is and need to be aware of what equipment in your labs may be controlled and who is working with it. 3

Responsible Conduct of Research Helena Solo-Gabriele

Responsible Conduct of Research Required of Post-docs and all Students (PhD, MS, and Undergraduate) who work on research. Two parts for training On-line CITI course Students enroll in RST611 or RST411 Classroom/lecture training (required for biomedical-related research) Students enroll in RST612 or RST412 Details at: http://www.miami.edu/coe/index.php/coe/research/responsible_conduct_of_research_rcr

Email drafted Students and post-docs supported on National Institute of Health (NIH) grants or working on biomedical related research projects are expected to complete a 6 to 8-hour classroom course in Responsible Conduct of Research (RCR). The process involves enrolling in RST611 and RST 612 training. Some of you might have taken it already; If you took it over 4 years ago, you would definitely need to take RST 611 and RST 612 again. For RST 611, you can use SINGLE SIGN ON (SSO) to access CITI Program via Cane ID and complete the course online. (Click on the SSO link for instructions and the login pathway.) For RST 612 (in-person training), it will consist of two half-day sessions on August 16th and August 17th from 8:30 am – 12:30 pm. The location is School of Nursing and Health Studies, Room 328. The training is required once every 4 years. Please confirm with me that you will attend the training in person so I may also confirm with the School of Nursing and Health Studies Directors of your attendance. Once you complete the RST 611, you will print the report of completion and scan it to me.

Undergraduate Research Opportunities Three ways to participate Volunteer Research Credit Course Hourly Pay All undergraduate researchers should complete the application form for the University’s Office of Undergraduate Research Details at: http://www.coe.miami.edu/coenewsite/uro.html
