We are hoping to learn whether a virtual parenting support program called Circle of Security Parenting (COSP) can be a helpful and accessible resource for people who are parenting small children. We want to understand if this program can help reduce stress, improve mood, and increase confidence in parenting. We are also interested in hearing how satisfied participants are with the program.
We want to create a registry of new and established patients with ocular burns who attend the UNC Department of Ophthalmology, with the aim of understanding risk factors, how the disease develops, and response to treatment.

We are trying to find out if the medications you are taking before you have an LVAD tells us how you sad or nervous you will be after LVAD surgery.

The purpose of this study is to understand how well Mandarin-speaking individuals in North Carolina know about CPR, how confident they feel about doing it, and what challenges they face in learning it. CPR is an important skill that can help save lives during emergencies, but some people may not have access to training because of language barriers or other difficulties. By learning more about these challenges, we can find better ways to offer CPR training that meets their needs. This study will help make CPR education easier and more available for Mandarin-speaking communities.
We are studying the scholarly productivity (research papers, presentations, etc.) among recently graduated gynecologic oncology fellows. This voluntary survey will obtain data related to research accomplishment during fellowship and factors which may influence this. The purpose of this study is to characterize the research productivity among fellows as well as identify research supports and barriers; this knowledge can be used in the future to set data-driven benchmarks and support fellows towards research success.
The goal of this study is to collect peripheral blood stem cells from participants which will be used to develop humanized mice reconstituted with human peripheral blood and hematopoietic stem cells. Humanized mice developed from these samples will be used solely for research advance our understanding of the molecular basis of HIV infection and persistence of latent HIV, with an overall goal of advancing the field toward HIV cure.
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.
