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.

Triangle Biotechnology, Inc.
Equity Interest - Non-publicly traded entity ( e.g., stock, stock option, or other ownership interest)
The SFIs of the investigator are related to the funded research since the technology being used in
the project has been licensed to the company with which the investigator has multiple relationships.
The Institution has determined that since the technology could be further validated as a result of
the research, these financial interests could conflict with project.
Enhancing High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound for Tumor Ablation with Phase-Changing Nanoagents
High intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) provides a non-invasive and inexpensive technique for treating tumors. With this technique, ultrasound waves are delivered to the tumor in order to rapidly heat the diseased tissue, or ablate the tissue, and cause cell-death. There are concerns with HIFU regarding heating healthy tissue along with the diseased. In addition, there are concerns that to implement HIFU clinically would require large amounts of ultrasound energy and long surgery times. Our lab aims to show that a developing ultrasound contrast agent, known as phase-changing nanoagents (PCNAs), can minimize the heating of undesired areas, while enhancing the efficacy of HIFU, thus decreasing surgical time and energy requirements. This award will allow the characterization of PCNA formulations based on the in vivo properties of circulation time and penetration ability within the tumor, both of which have not been explored well and hinder technology progression. These characteristics of PCNAs will directly aid in optimizing PCNA formation for use in a PCNA-mediated HIFU pre- clinical pilot study.

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.
