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.

Octagon Therapeutics
Equity Interest - Non-publicly traded entity ( e.g., stock, stock option, or other ownership interest)
Dr. Ausubel is a founder of Octagon Therapeutics, a private company specialized in developing anti-infectives. The research project above involves using C. elegans–MRSA and C. elegans-VRE infection models to identify novel “druggable” targets and to develop novel antimicrobial compounds. The research results from this project could affect the value of the technology being developed by this company. The Partners Committee on Outside Activities review panel evaluated Dr. Ausubel’s financial interest in connection with the research project and determined that, based on the close connection between the company's interests and the research, the financial interest could directly and significantly affect the design, conduct, or reporting of the research.

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.
