Conflicts of interest
Over 15 years ago I was in receipt of royalties from Johnson and Johnson Orthopaedics, all of which I paid into a research charity (Action Arthritis). I am a stockholder in Accentus (Medical).
I receive expenses for travel and accommodation for my ODEP related activities but otherwise I am unpaid.
