Dr. Ganesan holds intellectual property rights on patents held by Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey (awardee institution) on methods for image analysis of histology of ER+ breast cancers for prognosis. These patents do not have any IP value at this time. Since one of the patents contains language that includes analysis of tissue microarrays and the current study will use tissue microarrays to assess expression patterns in various types of tissue, the ICOI Committee concluded that there was the perception of a conflict of interest on the part of Dr. Ganesan.

Listed Research Project
RARE EARTH NANOPROBES FOR OPTICAL IMAGING AND DISEASE TRACKING

This project is concerned with the design and development of a new family of contrast agents based on rare earth derived nanomaterials, which will exhibit high short-wave- infrared (SWIR) emissions in different spectral ranges. The goal of this project is to administer the biologically targeted forms of these probes to detect and track small metastatic lesions during disease development and following therapeutic treatment. The overall health care applications are in diagnostic and multifunctional imaging of cardiovascular lesions/plaques, cancers, neurodegeneration, and infectious diseases.

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.
