Reminders from the Office of Conflict of Interest

  • Note the following information regarding Public Health Service sponsored projects and subcontractors/subrecipients:
    • Emory subcontractors do not need to complete other institution’s financial interest disclosure forms.  Emory has a COI policy and will cover its investigators.
    • Receipt of forms, from other institutions, requiring certification that Emory has a COI policy and/or investigators have completed training, should be forwarded to OSP for further review and approval.
    • When Emory is the prime awardee and plans to use subcontractors, outside entity must complete:
      • Statement of Intent to Submit a Consortium Agreement (OSP website) at the time of proposed submission
      • Outside investigators complete Emory’s external disclosure form (OSP website) only if they certify on the Consortium Agreement, that they do not have a COI policy and agree to abide by Emory’s policy.  This form must be renewed at the time of the progress report submission.
  • If an investigator is added to any project, they need to complete a financial interest in research disclosure form for that project within 30 days of engaging in the project.
