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.

Cognitive Retraining Technology
Equity Interest - Non-publicly traded entity ( e.g., stock, stock option, or other ownership interest)
Dr. Amir's research concerns the alleviation of anxiety through computer training/modulation systems; the entity, Congnitive Retraining Technologies, is one of these computer training programs.
Attention Training and Relaxation for GAD: Testing the Efficacy of Home-Delivery
Generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) is a prevalent and debilitating psychiatric condition associated with low rates of accessing evidence-based treatments that result in prolonged personal and economic costs. Thus, there is a significant unmet need for development of efficient and cost-effective treatments that are widely accessible to individuals suffering with this condition. The current proposal aims to address these issues by evaluating the feasibility and effectiveness of a computer-delivered home- based treatment program for GAD that comprises a combination of two interventions shown to be efficacious in the treatment of GAD (i.e., attention training and applied relaxation).

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.
