Nicole,

We have both a conflict of interest policy and a nepotism policy. Neither 
tracks disclosures using any kind of electronic database (although COI will be 
soon with an in-house system). We send out a notice every year reminding 
individuals to disclose conflicts of interest and conflicts of commitment. 
Since nepotism is prohibited, we don't have a disclosure process, but 
exceptions may be requested. We don't actively look for possible nepotism.

I was wondering if any of your institutions have a process of maintaining 
information on disclosed relationships. We ask the question "do you have any 
family employed by Western?" upon hire to avoid supervisory conflicts but we 
need a better way of having that information for when, for example budget 
authority is established which can be much later following hire.

Best,
Nicole
