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.

Counter Tools
Intellectual property rights (e.g., royalties, patents, copyrights) not from the awardee Institution
The SFIs of the investigator are related to the funded research since the technology being used in the project has been licensed to the company with which the investigator has multiple relationships. The Institution has determined that since the technology could be further validated as a result of the research, these financial interests could conflict with project.
The Determinants of Tobacco Relapse and Initiation Following a Period of Forced Abstinence in the U.S. Military: A Social Ecological Approach
Within the first year of Air Force service, 20.4% of never users initiate regular tobacco use and 67.0% of former users re-initiate, with 76.2% of this relapse occurring during Technical Training. To date, no one has assessed the impact of the tobacco built environment in this ?natural experiment? of forced abstinence and rapid relapse, nor has anyone measured the influence that Air Force leadership (Military Training Leaders, Instructors and Commanders) have on Airmen?s behavior during Technical Training. In the proposed application we will take a social ecological approach to explore how characteristics of Airmen, their peers, training leadership, Air Force policies and the tobacco built environment influence high rates of tobacco initiation and re-initiation in Technical Training.

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.
