حوکمڕانی

How the network is run.

The lab network sits within Labs at The Global Centre for Risk and Innovation (GCRI) and follows its research integrity rules and lab research integrity page.

پرسیارPlain answer
Who decides admission?A Labs review panel of subject reviewers. Reviewers declare interests and step aside from applications they are connected to.
What does admission mean?The lab is listed and can contribute. It is not a partnership agreement, an endorsement of the lab by GCRI or of GCRI by the lab, a fee or a funding promise.
How is joint work agreed?Any joint work, funding or data sharing is set out in a separate written agreement before it starts. This page is not that agreement.
Can a lab leave?Yes, at any time. Published modules stay available under their open licence with their authors named, as the licence allows.
What if something goes wrong?Concerns about a module, a review or conduct go to فۆرمی نیگەرانیی ڕاستگۆیی. Corrections are published as new versions, never as silent edits.
IP and licences

Open terms, in plain language.

A summary for reading, not a legal text. The binding terms are in the contributor terms, the intellectual property and licensing pages, and any written agreement.

پرسیارەکان

Questions about becoming a partner lab.

Is there a fee?
No. Applying and contributing are free, and no fee schedule exists for the lab network.
Does our institution have to sign something to apply?
No. The applicant confirms they can apply for the lab. Joint work that needs an institutional signature is agreed separately, later.
Can we keep some material closed?
Say so in the application. The network publishes only openly licensed material, so closed material stays with the lab and is not used in Academy courses.
Will our lab be named on GCRI pages?
Only after admission and with your consent, in the directory and on the modules you author. Your name never appears as an endorsement.
