EVOLVE Study: Understanding risk for depression in the pubertal transition

Girls are almost 3 times more likely to develop mood disorders after the onset of puberty relative to males. This profound gender disparity suggests a critical role of ovarian hormones (such as estrogen) in the emergence of adolescent mood disorders. The purpose of the EVOLVE study is to learn about the effect of estrogen variation and stress in promoting mood symptoms during the pubertal transition.

Health-E from Home: Evaluation of an intervention using a small behavior changes approach to promote health and weight management

The purpose of this study is to evaluate participation in an 8-week community-based, online program for adults that will help them make small changes to their diet, physical activity, and other behaviors to help promote their health or manage their weight. We are interested in who will participate, how much participants will use the program, how many participants are interested in preventing weight gain or losing weight, and how the program will affect eating, physical activity, and stress. This program is based on previous research on approaches the researchers have studied to help people make small changes to their behavior and is being offered in response to an identified need to offer health promotion resources during the COVID-19 pandemic

Path to Prevent Preterm Birth (P3-Remote)

The P3 Study is also known as the Path to Prevent Preterm Birth Study. This study collects detailed data and biologic samples. It will help researchers to understand why some women have more than one preterm birth. For example, information from this study may help doctors know which medications or medical care will work best to help women deliver full term. We hope that this research will help improve outcomes for moms and babies in North Carolina and beyond! We are including women who have had a previous preterm birth. We are also asking some women who have delivered only full term babies to participate.
