If I'm already registered with another NIH repository or for agents, do I need to complete a full registration with BEI Resources?
Yes. The registration processes for different NIH programs are separate. However, you may be able to use some of the same documents for BEI Resources registration as you did for other applications, such as your CV and Scope of Use.

Is registration for the facility or for individual researchers?
BEI Resources does accept Institutional registrations for multiple researchers at the same institution. Institutional registration packets can be found on the registration detail pages. An institutional MTA must be signed by a signatory capable of legally binding the institution. All registrants must also submit paperwork applicable for their registration level as outlined in the instructions.
