The National Institutes of Health has announced a web-based tutorial developed to help improve and enhance compliance with federal financial conflict of interest regulations. NIH designed the tutorial for use by “institutional officials responsible for managing NIH-funded grants, cooperative agreements and/or contracts and for individuals who are responsible for the design, conduct or reporting of NIH-supported research.”

The tutorial is available in both Flash and PDF format on the NIH Office of Extramural Research Conflict of Interest web page: http://grants.nih.gov/grants/policy/coi/index.htm.
