2. Attend a WORKSHOP

Participating Scientists Rights and Responsibilities


Workshop participants are considered potential participating scientists should they continue to show an interest in the project. The roll of participating scientists will be reviewed on a yearly basis. A participating scientist is designated as a scientist at the post-graduate level who has sent samples to any GLI2C instrument within a period of a year. The participating scientist has the following responsibilities and benefits:

  1. They are provided with access to any GLI2C instrument, provided that they have demonstrated a baseline knowledge of the working of the instrument, as ascertained by:
    1. a certifying document prepared by a member of the executive committee
    2. completion of a survey prepared by the executive committee
    3. completion of workshop materials prepared by the executive committee.
  2. They are provided with help from any member of the executive committee on technological issues related to remote access of the instrument.
  3. The cost of shipping of their samples to a GLI2C instrument shall be reimbursed upon submission of the receipts related to shipping. They shall also be supplied with an initial set of appropriate vials. Additional vials can be supplied based upon continuation as a participating scientist.
  4. GLIC shall not provide solvents or reagents for sample preparation.
    4. The participating scientist will complete various online surveys as they appear during use of the instrument remotely. The data collected will be used by the executive committee to further refine and simplify the remote use process. Any data so collected will be made public in a manner in which the answers from individual users are not directly associated with the user, unless the user has agreed to such display.
  5. The participating scientists can be asked to participate in a peer review of data collected for the pesticide data base.
  6. The participating scientist may provide data to the pesticide data base should they so desire. The data displayed will be appear with tagged data in which the source of the data is appropriately listed.
  7. The participating scientist should acknowledge GLI2C in providing access to the instrument in any dissemination of their data (publications, talks, posters, etc.) Any other authorship issues should be discussed between the participating scientist and the executive committee member most consulted during the process.
  8. The participating scientist will be listed as such on the GLI2C web page
