Disclosed Value
Listed Reason

Under the initial request, the company sposed to have a 2.5 hour SAB meeting (Video conference) to discuss potential ways to prevent type 1 diabetes in humans. That occurred and nothing happened since. However, I did receive a "DOODLE poll" recently asking for my participation on an upcoming event. At the Immunology of Diabetes Society meeting (London), I had a two hour meeting to discuss the topic of "type 1 diabetes prevention" in general (why they sent me a check in 2018, I believe...see below). I am unaware of any compensation that will occur with it but to remain complaint, am requesting this renewal.

Additional Comments

This will be a video conferance. Not travel will occur. I will perform it at my house. Note, the document mentions 4 hours, but...I am not sure of the end date of the agreement. This may be a one off, or not. If more, I will contact UF COI.

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.
