Financial Disclosure

The University of Texas System provided all data on outside professional activity of faculty and staff from all campuses from 2016 to 2019. All university employees are required to disclose outside work or activities, which are reviewed for potential conflicts of interest and conflicts of commitment.

Atlas Regeneration Technologies

Listed Reason

I serve as the President/CEO of Atlas Regeneration Technologies, LLC. I worked 51% time for Atlas in CY2017 as part of a grant from the NSF. I am the PI for a Phase 1 Small Business Technology Transfer grant that is developing a UTEP technology. I reduced my time at UTEP to 49% and followed the policies. I had a COI in place since May 2017.

Additional Comments

I try to minimize the overlap, but it wasn't always possible. The work done for this project is done in a UTEP laboratory with permission. But Atlas does sponsor work at UTEP, which is managed by the College of Engineering with the UTEP PI being W. Shane Walker.

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.
