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.

Brain atrophy, cognitive impairment and Alzheimer's in a low CVD-risk population
PROJECT NARRATIVE This research will provide detailed information on the impacts of cardiovascular functioning, schooling, genotype, and infectious disease on cognitive performance in a pre-industrial Native American population experiencing similar demographic conditions as those in mid-19th century Europe. Investigation of cognitive functioning in a large representative sample of forager-horticulturalist adults can reveal novel insights into the relative contributions of and interactions between environmental and genetic factors in determining rates of cognitive decline. The results, combined with measures of brain atrophy and its predictors in the US, will shed light on factors underlying cognitive resilience and the role of schooling in expanding cognitive reserve across diverse populations.

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.
