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 Conflict of Interest with

Epigenuity LLC

Disclosed Value
Listed Reason
Equity Interest - Non-publicly traded entity ( e.g., stock, stock option, or other ownership interest)

This SFI was disclosed by the investigator to the institution but initially determined not to be related to the research since the investigator stated that his company was not doing any research at the time. However, this was recently determined not to the case and the investigator purchased services on the grant from his own company through a service provider, Science Exchange, in order to use the services of his own company. This has subsequently been identified as noncompliance due to the conflict of purchasing services from his own company. See attached report regarding the internal audit findings.

Listed Research Project
Gestational Hypoxia and Developmental Plasticity

Program Narrative Chronic hypoxia during gestation has profound adverse effects on maternal health and fetal developmental plasticity. Yet, much remains unknown of molecular mechanisms in the response to long-term hypoxia in both the fetus and adult. Scientifically, the studies will augment our understanding of basic mechanisms whereby the mother and fetus acclimatize to chronic hypoxia. From a clinical standpoint, these studies may provide new insights and suggest new directions in the clinical management of pregnancy complications and abnormal fetal development associated with gestational hypoxia, thereby reducing perinatal morbidity and mortality while improving maternal health and neonatal outcome.

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.
