The NIH provided us with their entire financial conflict of interest database, with filings from 2012 through 2019.

Dr. Yin is an inventor of single-molecule super-resolution imaging technology referred to as DNA-PAINT which is subject to a license agreement between Harvard and Ultivue Inc. Ultivue is based on DNA-PAINT and DNA-Exchange technologies. Dr. Yin holds equity in the company and he has an agreement to receive compensation for consulting services.

Listed Research Project
Pre-cancer atlases of cutaneous and hematologic origin (PATCH Center)

NARRATIVE Construction of Pre-Cancer Atlases comprising detailed spatial and molecular data on cell state and omic data in melanoma and clonal hematopoiesis will join together the two primary means of diagnosing human cancer: histology and genetics. The atlases we construct will help to identify patients with pre-cancer skin lesions and blood conditions at risk of progressing to malignancy at a sufficiently early stage that aggressive disease can be prevented.

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.
