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.
Core concepts within disciplines of science have allowed educators to teach the most foundational and critical knowledge efficiently, and students to obtain essential skills and knowledge required for a given discipline. Recent decades have seen many science disciplines applying and confirming the benefits of core concepts. However, there is limited research on the core concepts of healthcare administration and leadership, especially within pharmacy. Consequently, the lack of consensus on core concepts prevents consistency among training programs teaching pharmacy administration and leadership (PAL). Given the increasing value of didactic training for PAL and attributes within training programs such as MS degrees for pharmacy, a set of core concepts must be well defined to assist with didactic PAL training. In the world of rapidly evolving medical services, technologies, and policies, strong PAL skills can lead to advanced global health and the alleviation of some of the world's most pressing healthcare challenges
To explore expression of tolerance for ambiguity and need for definitive conclusion among medical students and to compare these scores across time in medical school.
The purpose of this study is to create a registry that will collect clinical data from participants attending UNC Hospitals who may present with metastatic cancer and are evaluated to receive radiation therapy. We hope to create a registry that future studies can pull from to study the impacts of radiation therapy on patient cancer outcomes.
Mental health issues are rising among kids in the United States. Speaking to a counselor over video chat is one way to increase access to mental health care during mental health crises. This study looks at what kids, parents, and school staff think about using video chats with a counselor to help when kids have mental health crises at school.
We aim to develop, field-test, and promote improved ways to measure and assess the public health hazards associated with sanitation systems and practices in sub-Saharan Africa, with the overall goal of informing sanitation planning and implementation at community levels. This will involve learning more about the range and distribution of sanitation technologies encountered in two cities of Africa (i.e., Kampala and Lusaka). Learning more about the levels of microbiological hazard in onsite sanitation systems especially septic tanks and other technology-specific lessons can be usefully incorporated in citywide sanitation improvement tools.
The purpose of this research study is to follow new parents with cystic fibrosis for 5 years to learn more about how their health changes when they become parents. The information we gather in this study will be used to inform future interventions to help people with CF successfully prepare for and transition into parenthood
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.
This is a research study. In this study, you will be asked to complete some questionnaires related to concerns you may have about germs, contamination, and contagions." It will take approximately 30 minutes to complete.
The purpose of this study is to identify key features of primary caregivers' desirable characteristics for the development of a Down syndrome (Ds) Clinic within the UNC Healthcare system.
