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.

The research conducted under this grant will evaluate/develop intellectual property of which Dr. Wang is an inventor, and for which the University of Pittsburgh has filed a patent application. Although the IP is not patented, nor currently optioned/licensed to an entity, the University of Pittsburgh is negotiating an Option Agreement with an external entity (namely, Secant Medical). Dr. Wang agreed to abide by a conflict management plan in advance of the finalizing of the Option Agreement.
Biodegradable Synthetic Vascular Graft
Public Health Relevance Statement Vasculopathy and the subsequent ischemia are leading cause of mortality and disability in the United States and other industrialized countries. The ultimate goal of this project is to create biodegradable synthetic vascular grafts that will be remodeled by the host in situ to fully functional host arteries. This will provide a new approach to treat vasculopathy and ischemic diseases.

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.
