Conflict of Interest Disclosure Form
As part of the application process, finalists (principal investigator and co-investigators) will be asked to disclose any competing interests (financial arrangements or relationships) that might compromise the credibility or perceived credibility of the study findings, or could affect your objectivity, or create an appearance of external influence. This request is similar to the types of disclosure requested by leading health journals. The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation's interest extends to those areas relevant to the study that, broadly viewed, could be construed as constituting a conflict of interest or the appearance thereof. When notified, please reasonably complete and sign this form and send it to the program. The Healthy Eating Research National Program Office staff will review and file your statement, and contact you in the event that any questions or issues arise that require further clarification.
