The purpose of Northern Light Health's Researcher Financial Conflict of Interest Disclosure (26-101) is to promote the highest ethical standards in situations where conflicts of interest may occur in the conduct of research. This policy applies to all sponsored projects, including government and non-government funded projects (such as industry or foundation sponsors), Northern Light Health-funded projects, gift-funded projects, clinical trials and also to unfunded research projects.
The Northern Light Health IRB requires any investigator conducting research with human participants to understand and comply with the Conflict of Interest policy.
