For more information, please visit our website: https://cecs.unc.edu The purpose of this research study is to learn more about the diagnosis, treatment, and survivorship experiences of adults with endometrial cancer. Initial enrollment goals are for 1,800 adults living in North Carolina at the time of their recent first diagnosis of endometrial cancer. This project will provide important data for integrating tumor biology, access to care, and other factors to identify contributors, and potential areas for intervention to address endometrial cancer disparities. Study staff will pursue annual follow-ups with participants, requesting updates to treatment status and quality of life measures for approximately 5yrs.

Professionalism is the first of six core competencies required in the curriculum of residency programs. Significant research has been done exploring the domains of professionalism in general and within the context of anesthesiology and anesthesiology training. Although little research has been done to identify breaches in professionalism most common today, research has shown there is a correlation between unprofessional behavior among physicians and patient dissatisfaction, lawsuits, and negative patient outcomes. The purpose of this study is to identify the most commonly perceived domains of unprofessional behavior observed in anesthesiology residency training programs. Additionally, we wish to see if professional lapses may stem from generational differences between teachers and trainees in their perception of professional behavior.
