To create a biorepository for future research studies to better improve patient treatment in care for patients with liver cancer and liver diseases

We want to better understand how and why the dosing of and response to hydroxyurea is different for different patients.

Research has shown that effective use of reading strategies contributes to reading comprehension. Thus far, most studies on reading strategy use have been conducted with second language (L2) readers of alphabetic languages such as English. There has been scant research on reading strategy use of Chinese as a second language (CSL) learners. Among the limited studies examining reading strategies employed by CSL learners, the majority were focused on advanced learner's reading strategies, and less attention has been devoted to intermediate-level learners. Furthermore, although a small number of studies investigating intermediate-level CLS learners' reading strategy use had both non-heritage and heritage participants, no comparison between the two groups was made. Given the vast differences of the learning profiles of heritage and non-heritage CSL students, it is possible that the reading strategies adopted by the two groups and the learning outcomes could be quite different. This study addresses this gap in literature.

to assess the attitude toward a newly adopted mortality and morbidity conference amongst surgical trainees

The purpose of this research study addresses the need to understand how higher levels of education among gay men impact people's perception of gay men as leaders.

This study aims to assess the image quality of the second-generation CBCTs-multi-source CBCT (ms-CBCT), dual-energy CBCT (de-CBCT), and a combination of both (de-ms-CBCT)-to the conventional, first generation CBCT, by objective and subjective measures.

This experiment will seeks to understand role media messages from military authority figures play in increasing a servicemember's efficacy, and whether the use of different types of authority figures matter and affect a servicemember/veteran's self and response efficacy beliefs about utilizing the military mental health system

The purpose of this study is to develop a prospective longitudinal cohort/registry of lymphoma patients in Malawi to address a lack of prospective longitudinal data related to lymphoma in sub-Saharan Africa, and to serve as a foundation for developing optimal treatment strategies in this challenging environment.

Compare two surgical procedures for treatment of trichiasis to see which one has better outcomes.
