Dig Into University Researchers' Outside Income and Conflicts of Interest
Published Dec. 6, 2019
This database was last updated in December 2019 and should only be used as a historical snapshot. There may be new or amended records not reflected here.
Conflict of Interest
Institutions must file significant disclosures to the National Institutes of Health if they determine financial relationships could affect the design, conduct or reporting of the NIH-funded research. The NIH provided us with their entire financial conflict of interest database, with filings from 2012 through 2019.

The Investigator owned shares of stock in Ligocyte before Ligocyte (a non-publicly traded entity) was acquired by Takeda (a publicly traded entity). The SFI is related to some parts of the Investigator's research funded by the grant.
Molecular Dissection of Norovirus Replication and Pathogenesis to Develop Therapeutics
Project Narrative Human Noroviruses are the most common cause of gastroenteritis in the US. The proposed studies seek to increase our understanding of how these viruses cause disease by understanding how they grow and how virus proteins work. In addition we will develop drugs that have the potential to be used for treatment or prevention of infection.

We're still reporting about conflicts of interest. Is there something you'd like to tell us about this disclosure?
Notes: When a more specific filing date is not available for an individual financial disclosure or conflict of interest form, we use the year the form was filed. If the year was not disclosed, we report the range of years covered by our public records requests. In a few cases, a start date was provided instead of a filing date. In those cases, we use the start date instead.
Fewer than 10% of records from the University of Florida and fewer than 1% of records from the University of Texas system were removed because they did not contain enough information.
ProPublica obtained additional financial disclosures and conflict of interest forms that we have not yet digitized and added to the database. You can download those disclosures in the ProPublica Data Store.
