The purpose of this study is to understand social perception.
The purpose of this study is to explore the impact of followership on idea generation in different contexts.
The primary purpose of this study is to determine what the public reception, attitudes and behaviors are in response to having free sunscreen dispensers placed at several locations at a major educational institution. The secondary outcome is to better understand the baseline sun protection knowledge and risk amongst those affiliated with the university.
This study is designed to assess the effect of AZD0780 compared with placebo in reducing the risk of major cardiovascular events (MACE)-PLUS in patients with established ASCVD or those at high risk for a first ASCVD event.
This project aims to integrate generative AI (GenAI) into MEJO379, a high-enrollment course, to meet the demand for students to critically engage with AI in strategic communication. Despite industry emphasis on AI skills, students currently lack knowledge and practice in utilizing AI for primary research. This project seeks to develop GenAI-driven learning experiences to bridge this gap. Leveraging the team's expertise, we will create adaptable learning materials, cutting-edge examples/cases, and engaging assignments emphasizing GenAI best practices and critical reflection.
Explore expression of tolerance for uncertainty among UNC School of Medicine applicants and to compare these scores among admitted and rejected applicants.
This study aims to better understand how aspirin use is managed for patients after they come into the emergency room for bleeding or trauma. In the long term, to improve patient care as they transition from emergency care to primary care and ensure patients are taking aspirin safely. We think this study is important because it's the first to look at how emergency room visits lead to stopping inappropriate aspirin use in older adults. Our team includes experts from different fields like emergency medicine, geriatrics, heart health, and pharmacology.
Restorative Justice (RJ) is a way of dealing with harm that focuses on healing instead of traditionally punishing people. RJ can help both the person who was harmed and the person who caused the harm, but we also have to be careful. Over the past few decades, more people have started to see RJ as a better way to handle problems in the legal system and to help communities heal. This study looks at how Restorative Justice is being used in Durham, Wake, and Orange County North Carolina and whether it helps reduce punishments like jail time, fines, or probation in adult felony cases.
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.
I want to understand how the idea of "academic freedom" really works at UNC-Chapel Hill. Academic freedom is supposed to mean that educators and researchers can ask questions, share ideas, and do their work without unfair limits. The University upholds this idea through its statement on academic freedom, naming its support for the "free and open exchange of ideas," but recent events-like debates over hiring, changes to curriculum, and political pressure-raise questions about whether that promise is being upheld. My study looks at how the University's standards about academic freedom compare to what actually happens in practice. I will review archival decisions and public statements, as well as speak to former and current faculty about their experiences. In doing so, I hope to show how academic freedom is protected, where it is limited, and what that means for how ideas are shared and challenged on campus.
