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.

This outside activity has a nexus with the investigator's research activities because the outside activity arises from and relies upon the academic expertise that qualifies this individual to participate in this PHS funded research activity.
The combination of the investigator's significant financial interest in the outside activity and the nexus between the investigator's research corresponds to the definition of a FCOI and so requires management.
Blood-derived Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells for Cartilage Repair
Osteoarthritis (OA) is one of the leading health problems in the United States. According to the data from the Third National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, OA affects nearly 21% of adults in the United States aged 35 years and older. The National Arthritis Data Workshop has estimated that 27 million adults in the U.S. experience clinical OA. Surgical procedures such as joint arthroplasty using metallic and plastic implants can help reduce pain and regain the anatomic structure and function of joints. However, the risk of infection and the challenge of compromised biocompatibility resulting from polyethylene wear sometimes lead to early failure of implants, which doesn't make joint arthroplasty a necessarily viable option for young or middle-aged patients who may need multiple surgeries over their lifetime to revise or replace failed implants. Emerging stem cell-based therapies providing a biological solution for the treatment of OA are considered advantageous compared to existing pharmacological or surgical approaches. We propose to utilize cell reprogramming technology to produce patient-specific induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs), and then use the iPSCs to generate functional cartilage in vitro for cartilage repair in a sheep model. This proof-of-concept study will test the feasibility of patient-specific stem cells fr the production of autologous cartilage implants for OA treatment, as validation of personalized medicine for clinical applications.

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.
