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.

Regulation and function of Growth Differentiation Factor 11 during development and aging
This work will investigate a novel candidate juvenile protective factor, present at high levels in youth and lost with advancing age, that was identified by our laboratory as a potent stimulator of healthy muscle function. The studies proposed here will define the possible sources of this factor in the body, determine why its levels change with age, and evaluate the impact on muscle function of loss of this factor and restoration of its levels in youth and in old age. Studies will be performed using both mouse and human cells to directly establish the potential therapeutic value of this factor for human patients.

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.
