[Guest guest]

this is a very useful database of information:

 

Database Reveals Many Scientists' Links to Industry

LIFTING THE VEIL OF SECRECY:

NEW WEBSITE LISTS SCIENTISTS LINKS TO INDUSTRY

 

http://integrityinscience.org

 

The Center for Science in the Public Interest has posted on the Internet

database of over 1,100 professors and scientists who consult for or have

other affiliations with chemical, gas, oil, food, drug, and other companies.

The web site also provides partial information about nonprofit and

professional

organizations that receive industry funding. Both parts of the database

will be regularly expanded in the future.

 

The well-documented database is designed for activists, journalists,

policy makers, and others who are concerned about potential conflicts of

interest. The database is part of CSPI's Integrity in Science project,one

purpose

of which is to encourage greater public disclosure of corporate sponsorship

of science.
