PHS Funded (Including Adopted Organizations)
Under federal law and UC Davis Policy (per UC Davis PPM 230-07), if your research is sponsored by a PHS agency or other organization that has adopted the PHS financial conflict of interest rules, you must complete and submit the Online Disclosure and Online Training.
Please see the list of organizations that require compliance with PHS regulations. This list of PHS agencies is taken from the U.S. DHHS Organizational Chart and UCOP. Because there may be changes, if the agency you are interested in is not on this list and you are unsure if it is a PHS agency, check with the Research Compliance & Integrity unit (RCI).
