Conclusion

Congratulations on completing the course, Managing Your Potential Conflicts of Interest - A Course for University of Minnesota Researchers!

We are all committed to conducting ourselves and our University activities in accordance with the highest standards of integrity and ethics and in compliance with applicable state and federal laws related to conflict of interest and objectivity in research. This course has set forth the principles for identifying the potential for conflicts and the procedures for reviewing and addressing potential conflicts in order to ensure that they do not improperly affect University research and other activities.

In your role as a faculty member of the University, you are now prepared to:

- Discuss Federal regulations, state laws, and university COI policies and how they are applied and interpreted within the University of Minnesota
- Apply policies and procedure guidelines to make decisions about disclosure in real-world COI cases, including cases involving human subjects
- Develop a reasonable plan to be presented to the Conflict Review Committee defining how a conflict of competing interests will be managed or eliminated, should a situation occur.

Thank you for completing this course.
