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.

GeniPhys, LLC
Equity Interest - Non-publicly traded entity ( e.g., stock, stock option, or other ownership interest)
The overall goal and specific aims of this proposal are focused on tissue engineering strategies. The tissue engineering design and optimization strategies are centered on the use self-assembling collagen polymer technology (e.g., Oligomer) and engineered ECM approaches. The development of engineered tissue constructs, such as those relevant for laryngeal reconstruction, are relevant to the business scope and activities of the GeniPhys, LLC. GeniPhys is currently manufacturing and selling research-grade Type I Collagen Oligomers and is actively pursuing FDA clearance of a medical-grade formulation.
Muscle progenitor cell-based implants for dynamic laryngeal muscle reconstruction
Thousands of people in the United States each year suffer permanent voice loss because their voice boxes (larynges) are damaged from cancer, trauma, or nerve injury, as, in these cases, we currently have no options for restoration of normal laryngeal function. In this application, we explore novel methods for restoring function of the voice box (larynx) using adult-derived muscle stem cells in an animal model. We believe our findings will completely transform current paradigms for voice restoration in patients who have suffered laryngeal injuries.

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.
