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.

Disclosed Conflict of Interest with

Brigham and Women's Hospital - a subawardee to the Broad Institute, Inc.

Disclosed Value
Listed Reason
Equity Interest - Non-publicly traded entity ( e.g., stock, stock option, or other ownership interest)

The research combines expertise in kidney biology, genetics, and tissue engineering to develop kidney disease models, kidney organoids, and advance the field of regenerative medicine. Dr. Bonventre is a co-founder of, and holds equity in, Goldfinch Biopharma, Inc., a company that seeks to integrate genetics and kidney biology to identify, validate, and pursue novel therapeutic targets for kidney disease. Because the grants involve making organoids, additional techniques or methods in the development of organoids could also be beneficial to Goldfinch in testing therapeutic compounds for toxicity and efficacy.

Listed Research Project
A Catalog of Cell Types and Genomic Elements in Tissues, Organoids and Disease

Project Narrative The human genome contains genes, which encode the protein machines in cells, as well as over a million functional sequence elements that control when, where and how much protein is produced. These elements play pivotal roles in development and disease, yet remain poorly understood. The long-term goal of this project is to identify all functional sequence elements in the human genome, and determine their roles in health and disease.

Sources: National Institutes of Health, public records requests filed at multiple public state universities

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.
