In accordance with U.S. Public Health Service (PHS) regulations, Fondation Voir et Entendre (FVE) has implemented a Financial Conflict of Interest (FCOI) policy in research.
Financial conflict of interest (FCOI) means a significant financial interest that could directly and significantly affect the design, conduct, or reporting of PHS-funded research .
This policy governing financial conflict of interest applies to all United States Public Health Service (PHS)-sponsored Investigators of the Institution.
All investigators participating in research sponsored by NIH must complete the online NIH FCOI tutorial prior to engaging in research related to any NIH grant and at least every 4 years. Upon completion, each Investigator should generate a Certificate of Completion, insert their name and date of completion and send it to: programmes@institut-vision.org
Investigators who have not completed or updated their FCOI Training will not be able to participate in PHS/NIH or PHS-like sponsored projects.
