The study will analyze data about how students use instructional resources to discover how the use of those resources relate to student demographics (i.e., who uses which resources and to what extent) and learning outcomes. The resources under study are specifically those involving peer instructors such as learning assistant-led recitations and office hours, peer tutoring, and interactions with peers on instructional communication platforms such as Sakai and Piazza.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the feasibility implementing Integrative Medical Group Visits (IMGVs) for patients with chronic pain in Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs). IMGVs are an innovative way of delivering care for patients with chronic pain, combining medical care, group support, health education, and experiential activities such as mindfulness, chair yoga, and self-massage. IMGVs have been studied before and found to be helpful for patients. In this study, we are evaluating how to implement IMGVs into community health centers that receive funding from the federal government to provide care to patients regardless of ability to pay---called FQHCs. We will look at outcomes related to effectiveness of IMGVs to address chronic pain, as well as cost to the patients and clinic, acceptability and feasibility of delivering the program, and sustainability of keeping IMGVs going at the clinic over time.
The purpose of this study is to tell if a disinfectant wipe with a blue dye additive increases the thoroughness of cleaning and disinfection and reduces contamination.
This research study aims to identify the national need of family medicine residency educators regarding point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) education and resources. The study will collect data on the state of POCUS education and resources at medical universities across the country through an optional survey sent to faculty who are members of the Society of Teachers of Family Medicine. The questions in the survey focus on the respondee's level of POCUS training, use of POCUS in their day-to-day practice, and desire for different forms of POCUS content to integrate into their residency programs. The data will be collected and evaluated using Qualtrics.

Our study aims to understand the motivation and attitude of Telehealth participation among doctors.
Some female cancers may be genetic, meaning they are passed down from a parent through DNA (our genetic code or roadmap). In people with certain types of ovarian and uterine cancer, it may be helpful to test their DNA for any errors that can cause cancer. There are lots of important pieces of information to share when someone is diagnosed with cancer, and we are exploring a new way to share information. Patients with certain types of ovarian or uterine cancers will watch a short video that explains what genetic testing is and why it is so important. They will fill out a survey about what they think about the video and if the information is helpful.
The purpose of the study will be to explore the perceptions surrounding parental support and rejection through surveying Chinese or Taiwanese-American young adults that identify as LGBTQ+ (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer/questioning, or other non-heterosexual or non-cisgender identity).
