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.

Listed Research Project
Systems Biology based Proteogenomic Translator for Cancer Marker Discovery towards Precision Medicine

PROJECT NARRATIVE The goal of the proposed Proteogenomic Data Analysis Center is to elucidate proteogenomic complexity underlying tumors by employing network based systems learning on CPTAC proteomic/genomic data. Our team brings together extensive expertise in systems learning and proteomics data modeling. The success of this application will generate valuable resources on (1) high-confidence candidate biomarkers and drug targets; (2) new knowledge of cancer biology that involves integrated genomic, transcriptomic, and proteomic data; and (3) new bioinformatics tools that aid in the mining, visualization and interpretation of large-scale datasets.

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.
