Despite the ground-breaking benefits and scientific advancements in Chimeric Antigen Receptor T-cell (CAR-T) cell therapy, there are significant challenges for CAR-T clinical trials in diseases outside of cancer. These barriers include lack of awareness and knowledge, apprehension and hesitation amongst patients and healthcare providers, logistical and financial concerns, and inequitable access to this new therapy. This project aims to address these challenges by evaluating new resources to enhance access to participation in CAR-T clinical trials.
The Consortium of Eosinophilic Gastrointestinal Disease Researchers (CEGIR) is doing this study because they want to learn more about eosinophilic gastrointestinal disorders (EGIDs).
This study is being done to learn more about women's experiences and preferences when taking blood pressure medications after giving birth. High blood pressure can continue or develop in the weeks after delivery, and different medications are used to treat it. We want to better understand how women feel about these medications-such as their concerns, side effects, and how easy or difficult they are to take. The information collected will help doctors and health care providers choose treatments that work best for new mothers and support their recovery after childbirth.
Campus Sexual Assault (CSA) is a threat to all students in university. Figuring out how parents educate their children, if they do, is important. These findings can help develop CSA education programs for parents and schools.
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.
To explore the connection between early childhood challenges and breathing problems in the future.
The purpose of this proposed project, Monarch Reader Collections (MRC), is to create an implementation model to help educators provide students with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) access to collections of texts required for early reading success as part of comprehensive literacy instruction grounded in the science of reading. The target audience includes students with IDD ages 5 and older, their teachers, and educational teams, including their families and caregivers.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the impact of the Minimizing Text Complexity guidelines and tools and resources to support their use to increase access to the general education curriculum for students with significant cognitive disabilities.
We are collecting blood and optionally stool, bone marrow or tissue samples from patients who received cell therapy or a stem cell transplant to treat cancer. This will help understand how the immune system recovers after cell therapy or stem cell transplant and how it may relate to patient outcomes.
This study looks at how local governments, community groups, and residents work together to clean up parks that were found to have contamination, such as lead or other pollutants. The goal is to understand what helps these groups cooperate, share information, and rebuild trust. By learning from people involved in these efforts, the study hopes to find better ways for communities and officials to communicate and make decisions about keeping parks safe and healthy for everyone.
