Conflict of Interest
Overview
The Albert Einstein College of Medicine and Montefiore Medical Center are committed to research, education, and patient care that are free of unmitigated conflicts of interest. To ensure that all aspects of Einstein’s mission are carried out free of conflicts, institutional policies require that all Einstein or MMC employed faculty members and post-docs complete COI training and submit annual COI disclosures.
To solicit annual COI disclosures, Einstein conducts an annual COI disclosure campaign using OneAegis, a web-based COI tracking system. Einstein and MMC-payroll faculty and post docs must submit disclosures during the month of December each year.
The December 2024 COI campaign cycle will begin on December 2, 2024. If you are required to submit a COI disclosure in the annual campaign, you will receive an email with instructions and a link to the disclosure system.
Per federal regulations and institutional policies, we require that all faculty on the Einstein or Montefiore payroll and all postdoctoral fellows complete Conflict of Interest (COI) training at least once every 4 years. This requirement applies to all faculty on all tracks, including educators and basic scientists.
