Does your child have hearing loss in one ear, or single-sided deafness? If they are under the age of 3, they may be able to receive a cochlear implant as part of a research study to find out if early implantation helps children with single-sided deafness. If they are five, they may be able to help us study differences between children who receive a cochlear implant when they are little, children who do not receive a cochlear implant, and those with typical hearing.
Have you been diagnosed with advanced unresectable pancreatic cancer. If so, you may be able to take part in a research study looking at the safety and tolerability of olaparib in combination with durvalumab and radiation therapy in patients with pancreatic cancer.
Interested in participating in future research studies? Whether you have had a previous ACL injury or not, you may be able to take part in several research study opportunities. This registry simply collects your contact information and then we will reach out if any study opportunities are available.
We study how the immune system protects against viruses and bacteria without causing excessive harm to organs like the lungs, heart, and kidneys. We need a small amount of blood to study how immune cells ("white blood cells") turn on important proteins when they sense a bacteria or virus nearby.
Have you been listed for kidney transplant at UNC? If so, you may be able to take part in a research study to help us learn how the process of waiting for a kidney transplant impacts you.
Have you been diagnosed with Eosinophilic Esophagitis (EoE) and therapies you've tried don't work, or you aren't interested in taking drugs to treat your EoE? Are you willing to modify your diet to exclude certain foods for 8 weeks? If so, then you may be eligible to participate in a study to see if an individualized diet elimination therapy works to treat EoE.
