Steve Eisner: Export Control Presentation

Kavli Auditorium, from 21 May 07 10:00 AM to 21 May 07 11:00 AM

Steve Eisner, Export Control Officer, in the Office of the Dean of Research (DOR). Steve joined DOR early last year and is responsible for monitoring the university’s compliance with a myriad of federal regulations governing the export of items, information or software to foreign persons as well as educating the greater Stanford academic community about these regulations. Steve has been conducting outreach to various schools’ and departments’ faculty and research staff on these issues. This briefing will provide attendees with tools to recognize export control “red flags” including contract terms and conditions that restrict SLAC or Stanford’s ability to share information with foreign national researchers and collaborators in the U.S. and abroad. Important export control concepts in a laboratory and university setting will be covered, such as the fundamental research exclusion, the ITAR “University License Exception”, exports of tangible items including laptops, and travel to or research collaboration with individuals and organizations in embargoed or sanctions countries. Also addressed will be certain activities, transactions and exports that trigger export license requirements such as dual use encryption software transfers and acceptance of proprietary third-party information and items in the conduct of research.
