An abstract suitable for publication in QNRF’s biannual survey of research in Qatar should be provided. Participation in QNRF Seminars. PIs must be willing to participate in semi-annual or annual conferences or workshops organized by QNRF in order to share findings, lessons learned, and technical or policy barriers. QNRF may request presentations of progress made if needed at any time. Post-Completion Reports. Grantees should also provide post-completion reports, if applicable, after the term of the grant, outlining any subsequent grant-derived accomplishments. Given ordinary lags in developing work products, e.g., publishing research findings or acquiring patents, and in establishing outcomes, it may be difficult to assess the full impact of funding without post-completion reporting. 11.3 Communication of Research Results The QNRF will create and maintain a publicly accessible project database with links, as appropriate, to work products. For example, a web-based database could include the following: the program or project title, the name of the Principal Investigator, the start and end dates, a summary of findings, as approved by the Principal Investigator or project leader, a list of work products, and links to final reports, publications, and other documented work products. Principal Investigators must cooperate in providing this information. 11.4 Intellectual Property Policy QNRF will follow the international model for intellectual property rights and revenue sharing for research outcomes and technology transfer. Please see the QNRF website www.qnrf.org for the Intellectual Property Policy. 68 Launching the Qatar National Research Fund Page 14 of 22 April 2007 12.
