Export Control laws broadly apply whenever items, services, technology, funds, or data are being sent (exported) outside of the United States, including when information and know-how is transferred to a foreign national located within the United States (a “deemed export”), regardless of the source of funding. Harvard Medical School is committed to complying with applicable U.S. laws and regulations pertaining to exports of items, services, technology, funds, or data by or on behalf of HMS.
