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

ThermoFisher

Disclosed Value
Listed Reason
Payment for services (e.g., consulting fees, honoraria, paid authorship)

Professor Kelleher is a founder of and has equity interests in Proteinaceous. Professor Kelleher also has a consulting relationship with ThermoFisher. Proteinaceous’ major product is a software package, ProSightPC, which has been acquired by ThermoFisher and is sold in conjunction with mass spectrometry (MS) equipment to facilitate proteomics analyses. This project features a collaboration with ThermoFisher to refine and develop new capabilities in MS for proteomics, including building two new instruments that could continue to utilize this software package. These relationships and the intersection with Professor Kelleher’s research results in a potential conflict of interest that should be managed.

Listed Research Project
National Resource for Translational and Developmental Proteomics

The National Resource for Translational and Developmental Proteomics (NRTDP) will address urgent needs in disease research by advancing technology and its accessibility in a range of protein-based measurements using ultra-high performance and beyond state-of-the-art in mass spectrometry-based proteomics.

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.
