Sept. 11, 2025 Individual Conflicts of Interest in USF Research Projects and USF Financial Conflicts of Interest (FCOI) Policy 0-309 Substantive Following a review of human subjects research study protocols by the QA/QI group in Research Integrity & Compliance, we learned that investigators were not always using language on the consent forms that had been approved by the COI Committee as part of an Conflict Management Plan. This change will allow us to confirm that the appropriate language has been included in the consent form. Other language assures RIC will have the necessary permissions to review the disclosures of Covered Officials so that we may address the matter of institutional COIs. This language appears in the Institutional COI Policy.
Sept. 18, 2025 Emergency Management Policy 6-010 Technical (none)
