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.

Cell Optic, Inc
Other : Fiduciary Role
The SFIs that result from the income, IP rights, and equity interest in a privately held entity are related in that their value could be affected by the research. The SFI that results from the fiduciary role is related in that it is an entity whose financial interest could be affected by the research. Upon review by the sub-recipient institution, it was determined that Dr. Brooker's SFIs could directly and significantly impact the design, conduct or reporting of his research under the award.
Super-Res Holographic Microscopy to Advance Research on Golgi Apparatus Function
We propose the implementation and application of the novel approach of super-resolution holography to the study of Golgi apparatus function in live cells. The Golgi apparatus is the central organelle within the secretory pathway of human cells. How the structure and function of this organelle is regulated is central to the health of cells and hence to the health humans. Defects in Golgi associated Rab protein function affect vision (glaucoma), neurodegenerative disease, Chlamydia! infection, viral entry and aging.

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.
