The purpose of this research study is to determine the long-term impact of the "Building Stronger Geoscience Departments" (BSGD) professional development program. Workshops took place at over 40 institutions between 2014 and 2024. The BSGD workshop focused on strengthening departments by promoting changes to recruitment strategies, curricular and program design, program assessment, and student support. Program participants developed a strategic plan to address their department's specific challenges and completed end-of-workshop surveys which detailed anticipated program shifts and provided workshop feedback. We will be using surveys and interviews to determine which, if any, parts of the strategic plan were implemented, and to examine the persistence of any outcomes since the workshop.
The ASPIRE trial aims to study anticoagulant medications in patients who have had an intracerebral hemorrhage (bleeding in the brain) who also have atrial fibrillation (irregular heartbeats). Participants who agree to study participation will receive either Aspirin or Apixaban and followed for 12-36 months to see if they have any other strokes, and follow their general recovery after stroke.
To gather information on the technique of staging laparoscopy and processing of peritoneal washings through a survey of practicing surgical oncologists. This presents an opportunity to potentially standardize this procedure in future. This may help facilitate more accurate staging of the peritoneum.
We are researching how safety slowly becomes normalized over time. If companies know how safety devolves, they will be better able to put preventative measure in place.
The purpose of this study is to explore the impact of followership on idea generation in different contexts.
The purpose of this study is to understand social perception.

The purpose of this study is to understand academic buoyancy in undergraduates at a rigorous university. College students face academic stress, burnout, depressive symptoms, and feelings of inadequacy. Findings will improve understanding of how students respond to academic stress and perceived inadequacy, and what they need to become academically buoyant.
We want to learn more about patients' experiences with hospital care at home compared to care in the hospital building. To do this, we will ask patients and families to complete a short survey and then connect their answers with existing medical records. This will help us understand the costs, challenges, and benefits of different types of hospital care.
We are exploring the relationship between participation in the FIT Program with health outcomes, recidivism, and healthcare utilization for people who are coming out of incarceration and who have chronic illnesses.
