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 Value
Listed Reason
Intellectual property rights (e.g., royalties, patents, copyrights) not from the awardee Institution

The investigator’s IP is used in the project or is closely related to that which is used in the project and thus its value could be impacted by the results. Equity/Co-founder - The outcome of the research is of significant business interest to the entity and therefore the SFI could likely change based on the research results.

Listed Research Project
Stem Cell-based therapy for Lymphedema

We have developed methods to differentiate human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs), including embryonic stem cells and induced pluripotent stem cells, into the lymphatic endothelial cell (LEC) lineage. In this proposal, we will seek to investigate the therapeutic effects and lymphatic neovascularization effects of hPSC-derived LECs and their bioengineered derivatives on experimental lymphedema. Ultimately this study aims to develop effective hPSC-based therapy for treatment of human lymphedema.

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.
