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.

Linnaeus Bioscience,
Salary not from the awardee Institution
Dr. Pogliano and her spouse hold (b)(4) equity interest in the company and are co-founders. In addition, she receives income for consulting in bacterial cell biology and physiology. This project is to fully develop the rapid inhibition profiling technology and use it screen for antibacterial molecules and identify those that inhibit new drug targets.
Identification of natural products targeting new pathways in bacteria
We have developed an approach for rapidly identifying natural products with antibacterial activities in crude natural product extracts and for rapidly discriminating between different mechanisms of action, detecting detect nuisance compounds and multiple activities in partially purified or crude natural product extracts. We have now developed a complimentary approach (R.I.P.) that will allow us to identify molecules that inhibit proteins that are not currently targeted by antibacterial drugs. We here propose to fully develop the R.I.P. technology and use it screen for antibacterial molecules and identify those that inhibit new drug targets, allowing the more rapid discovery of antibiotics to combat drug resistant bacterial pathogens.

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.
