Disclosure of faculty relationships
As a sponsor accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education, the UC Davis Health System Office of Continuing Medical Education must insure balance, independence, objectivity and scientific rigor in all its individually sponsored or jointly sponsored educational activities. All faculty participating in a sponsored activity are expected to disclose to the activity audience any significant financial interests or other relationships with the 1) manufacturer(s) of any commercial product(s) and/or provider(s) of commercial services discussed in an educational presentation, and 2) any commercial supporters of the activity (significant financial interests or other relationships can include grants or research support, employee, consultant, stock holder, member of speakers bureau, etc.). The intent of this disclosure is not to prevent speakers with significant financial or other relationships from making presentations, but rather to provide listeners with information on which they can make their own judgments. It remains for the audience to determine whether the speaker’s interests or relationships may influence the presentation with regard to exposition or conclusion.
