Ordering from NBRP C elegans (Mitani stock center)

Model Organism: Worms Scientific Discussion
1

Ordering from NBRP C elegans (Mitani stock center): I received an “eMTA” PDF that lays out terms and conditions but has no where for my institution to sign to acknowledge and accept the terms. They did request contact info for my institution’s tech transfer office–will the NBRP contact them directly? Just trying to figure out how this is supposed to work–my tech transfer office is confused and so am I. Thanks!

An update in case anyone is interested: Apparently the new procedure is just that they send you the electronic PDF eMTA when you submit your order and by taking delivery of the worms, you indicate your implicit agreement. There is nothing to sign and send back.
