This extension adds funding and conflict-of-interest information to the abstract page of Pubmed articles (when available)
Unearth Extension
Currently works for open-access articles from PubMed Central, which covers “several million articles from several thousands of journals.” (We will be adding additional coverage and fixing bugs in coming weeks. Volunteers welcome!) If there are no funding or conflicts disclosures accessible for the abstract within PMC, the extension does not modify the PubMed page, so you might not notice any change.
Try it: After installing the Extension, go to http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/25274181 (copy this URL now)
