recombinant DNA developed with NIH funds, and if the 
institution that developed those materials sponsors or 
participates in those projects. Participation includes 
research collaboration or contractual agreements, but 
not mere provision of research materials. 
"If the host country has established rules for the conduct 
of recombinant DNA projects, then the project must be in 
compliance with those rules. If the host country does not 
have such rules, the proposed project must be reviewed by an 
NIH approved IBC or equivalent review body and accepted in 
writing by an appropriate national governmental authority. 
The safety practices to be employed abroad must be 
reasonably consistent with the NIH Guidelines." 
Dr. Cohen then adjourned the subcommittee at 12:15 p.m.
