Filing Type

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.

Disclosed Conflict of Interest with

Omicia

Disclosed Value
Listed Reason
Other : Intellectual property rights (royalties) from the awardee institution. The University of Utah COI Office considers this a conflict of interest under their policy.

The investigator's intellectual property U-4622 "MAKER: An Easy-to-Use Annotation Pipeline Designed for Emerging Model Organism Genomes" (non-exclusively licensed) and U-5047 "VAAST- Variant Annotation Analysis and Selection Tool" will be used in the research. VAAST is exclusively licensed to Fabric Genomics formerly known as Omicia, a non-publicly traded company in which the investigator reports significant consulting remuneration and equity interest.

Listed Research Project
Software for exploring all forms of genetic variation in any species

Arguably the most powerful application of modern DNA sequencing technologies has been the creation exquisitely detailed catalogs that describe the landscape of genetic variation in multiple species. However, discovery of genetic variation is merely the beginning; exploration and analysis of the resulting catalogs is required to catalyze new insights into the relationship between genotype and phenotype. This proposal seeks to provide geneticists studying any species with a powerful, flexible and simple to use software system that fast and scalable enough to support genetic research for many years to come.

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.
