Cities are hot during daytime in summer time - much hotter than their surrounding vegetated, often forested rural areas. This effect, the Urban Heat Island Effect, is determined by building materials, human activity, and urban vegetation. But how does it affect individual thermal comfort? We are interested in understanding relationships between temperature and thermal comfort in urban areas.

To evaluate the impact of environmental exposures during pregnancy on women's cardio-metabolic health in the years following the pregnancy.

Student researchers will develop a set of 10-15 infographics of interventions that incorporate the Safe Systems principles. This project will work closely with the NC Vision Zero team to gather input from key road safety partners across the country (e.g., the Vision Zero Network, and Families for Safe Streets) via interviews to identify interventions to highlight, collaborate with the design team at NC State's Institute for Transportation Research and Education to produce quality materials, and work with local NC communities to conduct usability testing of materials and create a dissemination plan for the NC Vision Zero team.

The purpose of this project is to advance understanding of the relationship of food and eating characteristics with gastrointestinal symptoms on a population level, by examining the frequency, associated factors, and quality of life and emotional effects of eating-associated gastrointestinal symptoms.

The purpose of the DETECT study is to learn more about how some breast tissue features show up on a mammogram and what these features can tell us about the potential for a breast cancer diagnosis. Your participation will help us understand how the appearance of those breast tissue features is affected by hormone levels. Our objective is to collect urine samples that we will use to measure hormone levels. We will examine how hormone levels are related to breast tissue features measured from a breast cancer screening mammogram.

This study seeks to understand how best to increase knowledge about clinical trials, best way of communicating information about clinical trials, and suggestions for improving clinical trial participation particularly among African Americans (AA).

The purpose of this study is to understand how states can improve health information exchange for their Medicaid members.

The purpose of this study is to establish that a Xenon MRI can detect brown fat and brown fat activity in greater detail in humans than a FDG-PET.

The purpose of this research study is to assess the impact of student interns on the implementation of new services at independent community pharmacies. Identifying what type of support pharmacies need to integrate programs into workflow and successfully engage in the program will allow future programs to follow a similar framework.
