Student researchers will develop a set of 10-15 infographics of interventions that incorporate the Safe Systems principles. This project will work closely with the NC Vision Zero team to gather input from key road safety partners across the country (e.g., the Vision Zero Network, and Families for Safe Streets) via interviews to identify interventions to highlight, collaborate with the design team at NC State's Institute for Transportation Research and Education to produce quality materials, and work with local NC communities to conduct usability testing of materials and create a dissemination plan for the NC Vision Zero team.
The purpose of this study is to improve the teaching training and teaching support OB/GYN residents receive during their residency. We will use a human-centered design (HCD) approach to create a UNC OB/GYN specific curriculum for resident teaching. The first phase of this project, the Inspiration Phase, gathers information about the current reality of resident teaching. Using this information we will eventually create and implement an effective resident-as-teacher curriculum for OB/GYN residents at UNC.
In the US, systematic economic and social disadvantages negatively impact certain groups of people resulting in higher risk for poorer health outcomes and lower quality of life for these groups. These health inequities contribute to vast, nationwide economic burdens. The intersection of insuring healthcare in the US and ensuring health equity sets the stage for the challenges explored in this research proposal. With the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services launching a Stars Health Equity Index to measure and reward health insurer performance for quality ratings within higher social risk factor populations, this shows the critical role that health insurers can play in advancing health equity and lowering costs across the broader US healthcare system. This research study can help provide critical insights about how health insurers can play a significant and effective role in advancing and ensuring health equity.
