Use of a 3 Tesla and 7 Tesla Magnetic Resonance Imaging Systems to Image Normal Volunteers

The purpose of this study is to determine which new magnetic resonance sequences provide better, faster and more useful information. A sequence is a distinct method of obtaining magnetic resonance (MR) images. A magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) exam is made up of many different imaging sequences. These new sequences will be implemented on either on a 3 Tesla (3T) MR system, a 7 Tesla (7T) MR system (single- or multi- transmit), or both. Since the signal-to-noise ratio for MR images is highly dependent on the magnetic field strength, the anticipated signal-to-noise will be 7T greater than 3T and 3T greater than 1.5T systems. The 3T MR system is FDA approved whereas the 7T system is not FDA approved, but is built to the same standards as other FDA approved scanners. In addition, the FDA has approved magnetic field strength up to 8T for human imaging. Participants will be told ahead

Stop Consonant Study

The purpose of this research study has two parts. One part is to determine if a new test of palatal closure during speech in 2 year-old children with repaired cleft palate will predict palatal closure at older ages. The other part is to find out if some common speech problems in children with repaired cleft palate get better as a child gets older.

How Teachers Learn

The proposed project seeks to further our understanding of how teachers improve over time-and specifically how white teachers can become more effective teachers to students of color-by bridging three previously distinct literatures in education research: the returns to teaching experience, teacher peer effects, and the impacts of racial representation in the teaching force.

LCC Warnings - Representative Survey

In Aim 1, we will use existing research and expert review to develop new text and pictorial LCC warnings and test the new warnings using online experiments to identify warnings that adult LCC users perceive as most effective. The proposed study will fill critical gaps regarding which characteristics make LCC warning labels most effective and provide needed evidence on how LCC warnings influence LCC behavioral intentions. Our overarching goal is to develop effective LCC warnings that reduce cancer and other health risks.
