  Ensuring the objective conduct of research, free from bias, is one of a research institution’s most important duties, as well as a key focus for federal research funding agencies.  This report discusses both personal financial and institutional conflict of interest issues in the context of situations in which these conflicts most commonly occur, including consulting, licensing, and clinical studies.  The report also addresses federal research funding agencies’ recent focus on the intersection of conflicts and malign foreign influence, and includes key regulations and guidance documents, points institutions should consider in evaluating scenarios, and case studies that can be used to foster discussion and support educational efforts.
