All subrecipients on University of Oregon awards must have an enforced financial conflict of interest in research policy to comply with federal regulations and UO policy. If not, they must follow UO's Financial Conflict of Interest in Research Policy and processes.
Under the UO's policy, subrecipient personnel responsible for the design, conduct, or reporting of research must:
- Complete financial conflict of interest in research training every three years
- Disclose annually all Significant Financial Interests for themselves, their spouse, and their dependent children related to their institutional responsibilities.
- Update their disclosures within 30 days of acquiring or changing a Significant Financial Interest
Learn What Activities & Financial Interests Must Be Disclosed
The Department of Energy requires all research participants—not just PIs or senior/key personnel —to complete a financial conflict of interest disclosure and training. This requirement includes graduate and undergraduate students listed on the budget. Staff in the Conflict of Interest Office will contact PIs of DOE-funded projects that have this broader requirement.
Training and Declaration Forms
Each employee responsible for the design, conduct, or reporting of the research must complete the training and submit a conflict of interest disclosure using the link below.
Most employees complete the training and forms in 20 minutes, thought it may take up to 1 hour depending on the number of Significant Financial Interests an employee has.
