State of
California law requires disclosure of financial interest in the sponsor
of a research project; the donor of a research gift; and, under
certain circumstances, the provider of materials under a Material
Transfer Agreement (MTA) when that sponsor, donor, or provider is a
non-governmental source. For research projects, the Statement of
Economic Interests for Principal Investigators (Form 700-U) should
accompany the proposal and Proposal Review Form to the Sponsored Projects Office
or to the Industry Alliances Office. For MTAs, the Form 700-U should
accompany the Material Transfer Agreement Review Form to the Industry Alliances Office.
