Perinatal Depression Study in Za'atari Syrian Refugee Camp

Our study focuses on finding potential cases of Perinatal Depression amongst women in Za'atari Refugee Camp for Syrian refugees in Jordan. We created a paper survey that took questions from the Edinburgh Perinatal Depression Scale, the official questionnaire for assessing individuals for symptoms of this mental condition, and plan to give copies of the survey to patients at the Women and Girls Comprehensive Centre run by the Jordan Health Aid Society (JHASi). We are conducting this study because, while JHASi has information on some mental health conditions in Za'atari, they have no data on Perinatal Depression. According to this research, it seems many women are exposed to situations that could result in them developing Perinatal Depression. By assessing the women in the clinic for symptoms of this condition, our study will help fill this gap in JHASi's data and allow the organization to create new mental health support systems.

AI Pathology Study

We are studying how to make medical test results easier for patients to understand. Pathology reports, which explain what doctors find in tissue samples, are often written for medical professionals and can be hard for patients to read. In this study, we are testing whether artificial intelligence (AI) can help explain these reports in plain language. Patients having a routine screening procedure will read a sample report with or without an AI-generated explanation. Then they will answer questions about how well they understood the report and how they felt about it. We want to learn if using AI helps people better understand their health information and feel more confident making decisions. This will help improve the way test results are shared in the future.
