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.

High Accuracy Nanopore Sequencing
PROJECT NARRATIVE The objective of this proposal is to bring nanopore sequencing technology to its fullest potential. With funding through this program, our group has developed core technologies that are now involved in industrial nanopore sequencing implementation. To be valuable in health care applications the base calling accuracy of nanopore sequencing must be improved. We propose implementation of technology that will increase the base calling accuracy of nanopore sequencing by more than an order of magnitude to better than 99%. This goal is a transformative step forward for nanopore sequencing since it opens up ubiquitous applications of this technology in health care and beyond.

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.
