“…Guided by evidence that attitude toward academic-industry partnerships influences behavior (Glaser and Bero, 2005;Nestle, 2016), research documenting attitudes of public health academics toward accepting funds from for-profit corporations are urgently needed-particularly concerning those industries whose products harm health. Documenting these attitudes may stimulate dialogue around these issues, enhance awareness of the possible negative consequences and promote the development of policies to govern the receipt of such funds (Cohen et al, 2009).…”

With dwindling support from governments toward universities, university-industry partnerships have increased. Ethical concerns over such partnerships have been documented, are particularly relevant when an institution receives money from a corporation whose products do harm and are intensified for academic public health institutions whose missions include promoting well-being. Academics in medicine and nutrition have often failed to recognize the potential conflicts of industry-sponsored research. It is unclear if research to date has explored attitudes of public health academics toward accepting such funds. The objective of this research was to review systematically the attitudes of public health academics with respect to accepting funds from for-profit corporations. Four electronic databases were searched as well as the archives of the Chronicles of Higher Education. The search strategy was based on four main domains: for-profit organizations, funding, public health and academia. This search resulted in a total of 4017 articles reviewed. No articles were found that investigated the attitudes of public health academics toward accepting funds from industry. The lack of articles addressing public health academicians' perspective toward accepting industry funds is striking. Research regarding this topic can guide development of policies that minimize the negative consequences of industry funding.

“…Added to this, governments are subject to the complicating influences of industry advocacy bodies such as the Council for Tobacco Research, BAT, ICAP and the Portman Group [28,29]. A more prudent approach would be to wait until international guidelines and conventions on addictive consumptions are well established and are actively guiding the ethical behaviour of governments [30–32].…”
