EGID Partners is an online cohort of patients with eosinophilic gastrointestinal diseases (EGIDs), like eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE), eosinophilic gastritic (EG), eosinophilic gastroenteritis (EGE), and/or eosinophilic colitis (EC). It is a way to conduct important clinical research through surveys, and by filling out the initial survey, as well as follow-up surveys every 6 months, you can help answer important questions about living with EGIDs. We are also looking for people without EGIDs to provide information as well, so we can make comparisons between those do and don't have EGIDs. Adults as well as parents/caregivers of children are eligible. Find out more at www.egidpartners.org

The purpose of this study is to learn more about the lining of the uterus, called the endometrium, by taking samples of endometrial tissue. Samples are taken by a common procedure called an endometrial biopsy. We will look at markers of inflammation and altered energy metabolism in people with and without endometriosis in order to better understand the disease and identify new and better ways to treat endometriosis.

We are interested in finding ways to make political conversations go more smoothly. We will examine which conversations lead people to have more positive views of those they disagree with.

Determine the effectiveness of real-time CGM at reducing neonatal morbidity and mortality in pregnant individuals with T2DM, compared to regular blood sugar testing methods.

The purpose of this research study is to determine the effectiveness of the "Teens Taking Charge IOP" on adolescents who have experienced trauma (and their caregivers).

The purpose of this research study is to determine the cause and mechanism of alpha-gal mammalian meat allergy. Alpha-gal is a novel food allergy that we have only come to recognize in recent years. It seems to preferentially affect people who reside in certain geographic areas, with the southeastern US (including North Carolina) being one.

The purpose of this study is to understand how well the learning resources at UNC-Chapel Hill's Library Makerspace meet the needs of first-generation and international undergraduate students. The study will explore what resources are available, how they are designed to help students learn, and whether students feel these resources reflect their cultural values, learning styles, and goals. To do this, I will look closely at the learning materials, talk with students in a focus group, and test a new resource based on their feedback. The goal is to find ways to improve the Makerspace's self-guided learning tools so they better support students from diverse backgrounds. This research will help the Library Makerspace create a more welcoming and effective learning environment for all students.

I will be evaluating the usefulness of a standardized handoff tool, the I-PASS tool, in improving nurse to nurse shift handoff on an adult behavioral health unit.

The research team from the Carolina Global Breastfeeding Institute is conducting a study on the implementation of IYCF-E in Western North Carolina (WNC) after Hurricane Helene. This research aims to share lessons learned and improve the quality of future relief efforts through: 1) sharing lived experiences; 2) assessing effectiveness of training; and 3) informing the state- and national-level policy recommendations for incorporating Infant and Young Child Feeding in Emergencies (IYCF-E) evidence-based practices.

To compare the prevalence, severity, and timing of chronic health conditions (CHC) in a cohort of patients with DS-AL (Down Syndrome Acute Leukemia) with age-comparable DS individuals that have no cancer history. Our secondary objectives will compare NP (Neuro-Psychological) and health-related quality of life outcomes in survivors of DS-AL compared with age-comparable DS individuals with no cancer history, and will identify risk determinants of CHC and NP late effects among survivors of DS-AL.
