Conflict of Interest
The University of Kentucky has a Conflict of Interest/Financial Disclosure Policy that closely mirrors federal regulations in effect since October 1995. The intent of the policy is to help ensure the integrity of all research to avoid any perception that an investigator's financial interests might have either a positive or negative effect on proposed research.
UK's Administrative Regulation on Conflict of Interest/Financial Disclosure Policy (AR II-4.0-4) requires that all investigators on sponsored projects file a Disclosure of Financial Interest form (pdf) for each proposal.
