We want to learn how eye movements change when people do structured tasks given by the research team compared to when they do their own regular work. This information can help us improve future technology, like smart glasses, to make working with virtual screens easier and more comfortable.

Equity in North Carolina Medicaid

The overarching objective of the UNC CHER Medicaid Equity project is to develop the capacity and vision within NC Medicaid, necessary to lead and carry out the work of equity reform in policy. North Carolina Medicaid is undergoing a transformation of services, launching several health care initiatives, including Standard Plans, Tailored Plans, EBCI Tribal Option, Foster Care Health Plan and the Healthy Opportunities Pilot. Each of these initiatives incorporate health equity throughout their design and implementation. To most effectively incorporate health equity within North Carolina Medicaid and elicit accurate responses, external stakeholder engagement is required to determine how Medicaid policies can be improved.

A Peer-to-Peer Research Tool for Early Modern Marginalia Studies

The purpose of the study is to survey researchers with established interests in early modern marginalia studies about the development of a peer-to-peer research tool designed to facilitate their research. The tool will match scholars in need of photographs of unique pieces of evidence from rare books repositories with scholars able to take and deliver those photographs. The hypotheses of the study are that a) there is interest in a tool like this and b) scholars with established interests in the area can contribute meaningfully to the design of the tool. The aim of the study is to collect information through a survey about the degree to which such a tool might be used, for what reasons, and by whom, and about the features and functionalities that users would like to see in the tool.

AI-Powered MRI Quality Control and Artifact Correction

The purpose of the registry/repository is to provide a mechanism to store data and images to help facilitate the development of a deep learning framework for automatic, objective, fast, and accurate image quality assessment (IQA) of structural MRI data. IQA is typically performed via visual inspection by MRI technologists and can be time-consuming, subjective, and error prone. Our method will complete IQA in milliseconds with high sensitivity and specificity.
