The Food Allergy Initiative (FAI) Registry is looking for individuals with one or more food allergies. Patients who have food allergies often search for new treatments or help in research.To make it easy for allergy patients to hear about new research studies, our team has created a call-list for patients, called a registry. Signing up for our Food Allergy Registry does not require you to take part in future studies or affect the care you receive at UNC allergy clinics. It only means you will be informed of future research opportunities; you are welcome to decline at that time.

This is a clinical research study opportunity for people with Type 2 Diabetes using long-acting insulin. In this study, we want to learn more about an innovative approach for improving diabetes outcomes using Fractyl Health's Revita System for removing excess tissue from the small intestine. This minimally invasive procedure is believed to improve blood sugar control and overall metabolic health by altering the body's hormonal response to food intake in a similar way to that achieved with bypass surgery. If you are interested in learning more, please contact us!

The purpose of this study is to gain as much knowledge as possible about HIV-infected patients, so that we can improve care and help the patients live longer.

We're exploring how a special protein supplement called β-hydroxy-methyl-butyrate (HMB for short) could improve mobility in older adults with weakness. It involves just five in-person visits over 12 weeks.

Do you have Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency? Do you want to participate in research? You may be able to participate in a research project to be contacted for future research studies. Compensation provided.

Have you been diagnosed with a lung infection due to M. Avium Complex (MAC)? Are considering beginning treatment for this infection? If so, you may be able to take part in a research study helping us to learn more about the effectiveness and side effects of the two most common antibiotic regimens used to treat this disease. There are no additional visits required for the study and you may be able to participate remotely!

The purpose of this study is to compare diet (record of the foods you eat), gut microbiome (stool sample), and cells (blood sample) in adults with IgA Nephropathy (IgAN) and compare with adults with focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) and adults with no history of medical problems. The information we learn by doing this study may help us understand how we might be able to target the microbiome to better understand the disease process and potentially help us develop new therapies in the future.

Do you have Type 2 Diabetes? Is your BMI in the obesity range and you want to lose weight? You may be eligible to participate in a research study to compare the effectiveness of Tirzepatide vs. a combination drug (Cagrilitide and Semaglutide)

Are you interested in losing weight to improve your health? This is an innovative research study that aims to promote weight loss in older adults through either a health coach or a registered dietitian and physical therapist. In those not showing weight loss at 8-weeks, we will try a different strategy to maximize the chance of losing weight. We will provide a gift card incentive for your time.

We are testing out a device that collects physical function data among older adults who have multiple chronic conditions. We want to see if the device works efficiently and is user friendly.
