Dear Colleagues,
Beginning late on Sunday, October 5, all faculty, including adjuncts, and all staff will receive an automated message from Lehigh Integrated Research Administration (LIRA). The message will be from incoi@lehigh.edu, which is the university’s general Conflicts of Interest (COI) email. The automated emails will direct you to enter the COI module in LIRA, review the relevant policies, and either make a disclosure or confirm that you have nothing to disclose. The email will include instructions, and they can be found on the Office of Research Integrity website, under “Resources: Completing an Annual Disclosure”.
Be assured that the links in these emails are safe. They are generated automatically by the LIRA system and may look different from typical internal Lehigh emails.
Please contact the Office of Research Integrity with any questions about Lehigh’s policy on Financial Conflicts of Interest Related to Research, and contact the Internal Audit office for questions about Lehigh’s institutional Conflicts of Interest policy.
Best,
Naomi E. Coll
Director of Research Policy and Compliance
Lehigh University
