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.

Equity Interest - Non-publicly traded entity ( e.g., stock, stock option, or other ownership interest)
The Investigator has significant financial interests in an entity that aims to provide consulting services in the legal and potentially other arenas relative to whiplash injuries. The goals of this research include considering the development of objective and integrated assessments, as well as the development of targeted science-based interventions, relative to whiplash injuries. Therefore, the outcomes of this research could be perceived to benefit the Investigator’s consulting business through validation of the Investigator’s hypotheses relative to whiplash injury interventions.
Neuromuscular Mechanisms Underlying Poor Recovery from Whiplash Injuries
Motor vehicle-related injuries resulting in whiplash-associated disorders (WAD) send more than 4 million people to hospital emergency departments every year in the United States with associated healthcare costs estimated to be a staggering $100 billion. Current treatments consisting of medications, physical therapy, education, and assurance are helpful to the vast majority of individuals with whiplash, but do not, for unknown reasons, work for all patients. Therefore, there is a vital need to develop more clinically effective assessments, such as the one studied in this project, for accurately identifying, and treating, those at risk of developing chronic WAD to reduce the societal and personal burden of this debilitating condition.

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.
