To demonstrate safety and efficacy of the Cordella PA Sensor System in both NYHA Class II and Class III heart failure patients.

Preterm birth and the subsequent neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) experience have unique impacts on infant development, caregiver psychological health, and infant-caregiver dyadic interactions. Mindful parenting and self-compassion are parenting traits that can help families manage the emotional toll of the NICU experience and foster resiliency during the transition home. The purpose of this study is to gather parent perspectives on how dispositional mindful parenting and self-compassion shape familial experiences during NICU-to-home transitions.

We are doing a study called Shule Inajojali ("A Caring School") to learn more about what schools are like for children in Tanzania and how the school environment affects their learning and wellbeing. We will ask teachers and students questions through short surveys, and we will also look at school facilities and policies. By understanding what makes schools a positive and supportive place for children, we can help improve education and wellbeing for students in Tanzania.
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.
