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.

Leica Microsystems
Payment for services (e.g., consulting fees, honoraria, paid authorship)
Dr. Hillman has begun a consultancy with Leica Microsystems; she also is an inventor of SCAPE microscopy technology licensed from Columbia to Leica that relates to microscopy technology used in this study. In light of these facts, Columbia found that Dr. Hillman’s significant financial interest in Leica could affect the design, conduct, or reporting of the research.
The role of impaired endothelium-dependent vasoactivity in neurodegeneration
The prevalence of Alzheimer's in the United States is high, now at 5 million in elderly individuals and the incidence and prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors like diabetes is rapidly increasing in both young and adult populations. We believe that endothelial dysfunction resulting from these diseases damages dynamic blood flow in the brain, causing neuronal death. In this proposal we aim to study the progression of diabetic effects on brain blood flow and neuronal health in mice to understand the underlying mechanisms and possibly discover new therapeutic targets.

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.
