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

Haematologic Technologies Inc.

Disclosed Value
Listed Reason
Equity Interest - Non-publicly traded entity ( e.g., stock, stock option, or other ownership interest)

The company manufactures plasma derived coagulation proteins, antibodies, factor deficient plasmas and blood collection tubes intended for in vitro research use. Professor Mann uses HTI products, either purchased or donated, in his sponsored research and some of the trainees may work on projects using HTI products. While one researcher’s activities aren’t significant enough to affect HTI’s bottom line, and thus his financial interest, as a leader in the field, his research is often read and cited and has the potential to increase the market for HTI products.

Listed Research Project
Hemostasis and Thrombosis Program for Academic Trainees

Project Narrative This program has a major focus on the training of investigators who will deal with blood clotting and bleeding disorders. This research area encompasses major health problems including venous thrombosis, myocardial infarction and hemophilia which collectively have significant morbidity and mortality in the American population.

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.
