Conflict of Interest

The NIH provided us with their entire financial conflict of interest database, with filings from 2012 through 2019.

Disclosed Value
Listed Reason
Payment for services (e.g., consulting fees, honoraria, paid authorship)

The outcome of the research is of significant business interest to the entity and therefore the financial interest could likely change based on the research results.

Listed Research Project
UAB Nutrition Obesity Research Center (NORC)

RELEVANCE (See instructions): One's nutritional intake can have profound positive or negative consequences on health. So too does obesity, or excess body fat, have profound effects, usually negative, on health, quality of life, and lifespan. Beyond these broad generalities, however, much remains unknown in these domains, and misinformation and superstition abound. Our center advances knowledge on these critical contributors to health and disease through scientific inquiry that is both rigorous and creative.

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.
