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.

Otonomy, Inc.
Equity Interest - Publicly traded entity (e.g., stock, stock option, or other ownership interest)
Dr. Ryan is one of the scientific founders of the company and holds an equity interest ((b)(4)). In addition, he serves on Scientific Advisory Board and receives income from the company for consulting on inner ear biology. This project is to identify cellular and molecular mechanisms that lead to chronic otitis media, and to explore novel therapies for this condition using a series of integrated experiments employing genetically modified mice.
Mechanisms of Persistence and Recovery in Otitis Media
Otitis media is the most common disease in young children, accounting for more office visits and surgery than any other childhood condition and costing an estimated five billion dollars. Moreover, chronic and recurrent middle ear disease leads to hearing loss during critical periods of language acquisition and learning, with a risk of language delay and learning difficulties and permanent damage to the middle and inner ear. The proposed research will increase our understanding of otitis media and why it becomes chronic, and will explore new forms of therapy for this condition.

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.
