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.

Proteinaceous
Payment for services (e.g., consulting fees, honoraria, paid authorship)
Richard has a relationship with Proteinaceous in which he serves as an independent contractor and receives remuneration for these services. Proteinaceous’ major product is a software package, ProSightPC, which is sold in conjunction with mass spectrometry (MS) equipment to facilitate proteomics analyses. This project aims to refine and develop new capabilities in MS for proteomics, including building two new instruments that could continue to utilize this software package. This relationship and the intersection with Richard’s Northwestern research results in a potential conflict of interest that should be managed.
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.

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.
