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.

CohBar
Payment for services (e.g., consulting fees, honoraria, paid authorship)
Dean Cohen has a large public equity interest in CohBar, a company he founded based on discoveries of mitochondrial peptides (MDPs). He is now involved in a U54 Center Grant under John Carpten that will test previously obtained blood samples for these MDPs as biomarkers for prostate cancer. This is a potential conflict as the U54 grant will not test CohBar intellectual property.
3/3 Florida-California Cancer Research, Education and Engagement (CaRE2) Health Equity Center
Project Narrative The long term goals of the CaRE2 center are to reduce cancer disparities in Blacks and Latinos, to train and increase the pool of underrepresented Black and Latino scientists conducting health disparity research, to increase research capacity at an ISUPS (FAMU), and to increase cancer disparity research at UF and USC-NCCC. The proposed two full projects and pilot project include investigators from the three institutions and will leverage on specimens collected across the partnership from Blacks and Latinos, representing a wide range of subpopulations within these minority groups. Thus, our studies will reveal unprecedented findings about these two understudied minority populations. Importantly, these projects will be instrumental in transferring cutting edge and innovative technologies to FAMU, will provide research training opportunities across the partnership to 100 students, post-doctoral fellows, and early stage investigators, and will expand in a significant way the research focus at UF and USC-NCCC to address cancer health disparities in prostate and pancreas cancer.

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.
