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.

Parion Sciences, Inc.
Other : IP from Awardee institution
The investigator’s SFIs are related to the funded research since the technology being used in certain projects in the overall grant 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.
Novel Therapies for Muco-Obstructive Lung Diseases
Our overarching hypothesis is that a 'relatively dehydrated' mucus layer, reflecting either depletion of salt/water, and/or increased mucin secretion, or both, produces a failure of mucus transport, mucus adhesion, and an ensuing sequence that produces inflammation, bacterial infection, and airways remodeling in major human diseases, e.g., COPD and CF. This tPGG is designed develop novel therapies and devices for these diseases in both near-term and longer term time frames.

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.
