Re: Conflict of Interest and Financial Disclosure Jon Elizabeth Hart 01 Jul 2002 08:49 EST
At Rockefeller, we require the same financial disclosure statement for non-federal as for federal. Our policy applies to all research done on campus. We have a conflict of interest statement that has to be completed for all funding applications, and there is a more detailed financial disclosure statement that each faculty has to file annually with the President's Office. Hope this helps. Joni. At 06:53 PM 6/27/02, you wrote: >Our university currently explicitly requires the submission of financial >disclosure statements for all DHHS/PHS and NSF applications.
