Financial Conflicts of Interest

In this NIH All About Grants podcast episode, we virtually sit down with Diane Dean, a senior advisor within the NIH’s Office of Extramural Research, and dive into what you should know about financial conflicts of interest (FCOIs). The conversation touches on the regulations and our Guide Notice NOT-OD-21-002, what investigators and recipient institutions should do to comply, how NIH oversees the process, what may happen if these rules are not followed, and who to contact with questions.

“Remember that … significant financial interests, whether they’re foreign or domestic, if they’re related to your institutional responsibilities, they must be disclosed … transparency and accountability ensure that research is objective and in the best interest of the public.” – Diane Dean
