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.

Role of TRIF-Dependent TLR Signaling in Intestinal Mucosa
Project Narrative T cells are central contributors to chronic inflammation in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) but the exact type of T cells most responsible for chronicity and severity of intestinal inflammation has not been determined. We have found unique molecular pathways, which are induced by three Crohn's disease susceptibility genes, that inhibit the generation and function of a potent inflammatory T cell subset in the intestine. The accomplishment of this project will provide novel insight into the essential regulatory mechanism of highly aggressive T cell populations, which is expected to have a major impact in our understanding of mucosal immunology as well as in the future therapeutics of many chronic inflammatory diseases including IBD.

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.
