Financial conflicts of interest (FCOI) in research may occur when outside financial interests compromise, or have the appearance of compromising, the professional judgment of a researcher when designing, conducting, or reporting research.

Disclosing FCOI

All LLNL investigators (names on proposal budgets: Principal Investigators [PIs], postdocs, technicians, graduate students, consultants etc.) must disclose whether or not they have significant Financial interest (SFI) for every funding proposal using the Financial Conflict of Interest Disclosure form.
