Student researchers will develop a set of 10-15 infographics of interventions that incorporate the Safe Systems principles. This project will work closely with the NC Vision Zero team to gather input from key road safety partners across the country (e.g., the Vision Zero Network, and Families for Safe Streets) via interviews to identify interventions to highlight, collaborate with the design team at NC State's Institute for Transportation Research and Education to produce quality materials, and work with local NC communities to conduct usability testing of materials and create a dissemination plan for the NC Vision Zero team.

The purpose of this study is to improve the teaching training and teaching support OB/GYN residents receive during their residency. We will use a human-centered design (HCD) approach to create a UNC OB/GYN specific curriculum for resident teaching. The first phase of this project, the Inspiration Phase, gathers information about the current reality of resident teaching. Using this information we will eventually create and implement an effective resident-as-teacher curriculum for OB/GYN residents at UNC.

In the US, systematic economic and social disadvantages negatively impact certain groups of people resulting in higher risk for poorer health outcomes and lower quality of life for these groups. These health inequities contribute to vast, nationwide economic burdens. The intersection of insuring healthcare in the US and ensuring health equity sets the stage for the challenges explored in this research proposal. With the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services launching a Stars Health Equity Index to measure and reward health insurer performance for quality ratings within higher social risk factor populations, this shows the critical role that health insurers can play in advancing health equity and lowering costs across the broader US healthcare system. This research study can help provide critical insights about how health insurers can play a significant and effective role in advancing and ensuring health equity.

The purpose of this focus group is to get feedback from patient representatives at UNC Internal Medicine on a set of proposed patient resources and referrals to osteoarthritis resources.

This study aims to explore how college students with food allergies use dining halls and how this affects their risk of allergic reactions. We will look at answers to questions about dining habits, emotional well-being, and personal experiences with food allergies. Additionally, we will assess how well existing safety measures and accommodations in college dining halls work to prevent allergic reactions. The study seeks to identify specific factors that may lead to allergic reactions, such as how often students eat in dining halls, the meal plans they choose, and their understanding of allergen information. The findings from this study will help improve food safety practices in college dining facilities. Ultimately, we hope to create better strategies to protect students with food allergies, enhance their dining experiences, and support their overall health and well-being on campus.

This study understand the different motivations, interests, and goals of students pursuing STEM majors. We want to compare the reasons for why they choose what they want to study. This information can help us understand why the attrition rate of students in physics majors is particularly high.

This study aims to learn about how future teachers are trained to assess reading skills in elementary students. We want to understand their experiences, opinions, and confidence in using literacy assessments. By gathering this information, we hope to improve how teacher training programs prepare teachers to assess reading in young students.

The purpose of this study will be to collect and evaluate patient responses to see if counseling information on certain hormonal medications is beneficial to patients, and whether receiving additional counseling builds transgender patient confidence and comfortability in accessing medical and pharmacy services.

NEU-411 is being studied to see if it can slow PD progression in individuals with PD who have LRRK2 pathway overactivity (referred to as LRRK2-driven) based on their genetic profile.

the aim of this study is to measure and compare the effectiveness of the different nurse residency programs across UNC Health using a validated measure (Casey-Fink) of new nurse preparedness.
