This study is being conducted to understand how sexual violence impacts UNC's community and what student groups are most affected. This study aims to work with a group of 8-10 undergraduate students at UNC to collectively explore the impacts of sexual violence on different marginalized communities at UNC and co-create recommendations for culturally responsive violence prevention. Culturally responsive violence prevention includes trainings and other resources that can be tailored to different norms that exist in different cultural communities. This study does not focus on or discuss personal experiences with sexual violence at any point, and instead focuses on what can make students feel safer at UNC.
We are implementing a curriculum of 6 clinical cases within the Physician Assistant Pharmacology curriculum and assessing whether or not student's learned more from case-based learning or didactic lecture teaching style. We are doing this in order to understand whether or not case-based methods for instruction should be implemented within Physician Assistant curriculum specifically in pharmacology eduction. This research will allow for more information to be gained on the topic of PA Pharmacology education in order to employ the most useful curriculum strategies for future learners.
We are looking for links between cystic fibrosis outcomes and a history of intimate partner violence.
We have created this registry to provide an opportunity to study diagnostic capabilities, administration protocols and long-term effects of contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) of any organ.
The purpose of this research study is to create a Lymphoma Registry of patients who are willing to complete the study's comprehensive assessment. The assessment is designed to gather information on memory, nutritional status, mental health, and level social support. It is also designed to understand how well you carry out your day to day activities and to briefly describe what other medical conditions you may have. This assessment will help your health care team determine your "functional age" (the age you function at) as compared to how many years old you are. We will also ask you to complete questionnaires that ask questions about your personal health history, such as exercise and smoking,
The purpose of this research study is to compare how well two types of physical therapy (PT) programs work for people who have recently had total knee replacement (TKR). One program is typical postoperative PT. The other program is typical postoperative PT with additional balance training and physical activity coaching. By doing this study, we hope to provide people who have TKR in the future, as well as their health care providers, with information that will help people following TKR to increase their physical activity and improve their walking mechanics after TKR.
Our study is about helping landowners bring back the longleaf pine forest, an important type of forest in the southeastern U.S. This forest is home to unique plants and animals, helps clean the air and water, and is better at handling tough weather than other forests. We want to learn why some landowners join programs that support growing these trees and why others don't. We are especially focused on understanding the challenges faced by minority landowners, like African American families with heirs' property. By listening to their stories, we hope to find ways to make these programs easier for everyone to join, so more longleaf pine forests can grow and thrive for future generations.
The purpose of this study is to understand how employees interact with each other at work.
Using mixed methods to understand household exposure to multiple contaminants through private well water sampling in Caswell, Alamance, and Sampson Counties.
