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.

Disclosed Conflict of Interest with

Novan, Inc.

Disclosed Value
Listed Reason
Other : IP from awardee institution

The SFIs of the investigator are related to the funded research since the technology being used in the project has been licensed to the company with which the investigator has multiple relationships.

The Institution has determined that since the technology could be further validated as a result of the research, these financial interests could conflict with project.

Listed Research Project
Role of diabetes and nitric oxide release duration on analytical performance of in vivo glucose biosensors

The objective of this proposal is to study the foreign body response and analytical sensor performance benefits of nitric oxide-releasing percutaneous glucose biosensors in healthy and diabetic swine. Our hypothesis is that the performance benefits of sensors that slowly release nitric oxide-particularly for extended periods-will be even greater in diabetic animals due to inherently lower endogenous nitric oxide levels. The research has the potential to expand blood glucose monitoring compliance by improving the reliability and operational lifetime of continuous glucose monitoring devices.

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.
