Conflict of Interest

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

Disclosed Value
Listed Reason
Other : Intellectual property rights

The SFI that results from the intellectual property rights is related in that its value could be affected by the research. Upon review by the institution, it was determined that Dr. Lee’s SFI could directly and significantly affect the design, conduct or reporting of his research under this award.

Listed Research Project
Activin receptor-based therapies for musculoskeletal disease

This project will use novel genetic mouse models to unambiguously define the direct actions of activin receptor signaling in skeletal development and maintenance. Further, we will evaluate the therapeutic efficacy of pharmacologically manipulating this pathway in a mouse model of age related bone and muscle loss. We anticipate that results from these studies will expedite clinical trials of activin receptor-based biologics to treat bone and muscle loss in humans.

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.
