On Disclosure of Conflict of Interest (COI)

JSGE has fully implemented COI management in 2013.
Accordingly, those of you giving a presentation or lecture on medical research are required to disclose the state of conflict of interest related to the presentation or lecture.
For those of you who are giving presentations, you have already disclosed, when you registered your presentations, whether or not there is a state of conflict of interest. You are additionally requested to make the disclosure again at the time of actually giving your presentations.
The disclosure of the state of conflict of interest should be made by downloading the disclosure slide from below and inserting it in a prescribed position. Note that all presenters are required to make the disclosure regardless of whether or not there is a state of conflict of interest. Thank you very much for your cooperation.

*Please note that the Policy and Detailed Regulations on Conflict of Interest in Medical Research were partially revised as of January 2016. As a result, COI disclosure is required of lead presenters as well as co-presenters.

The Japanese Society of Gastroenterology (JSGE) Conflict of Interest Policy

*As for luncheon seminars, evening seminars, workshops, and lectures hosted or co-hosted by a company or for-profit organization, the chair or moderator should also make effort to disclose to the audience the names of the companies and organizations he or she has relations with, using slides in a similar manner as the presenters and reading out the names of the companies. If there are too many companies to read out, appropriate steps must be taken such as by using a separate projector to disclose the name of the companies on a slide.
