Hypothesis: The development of patient-focused tools and care processes will enable a transition from predominantly office-based CF care to a more convenient, co-produced model. The increased utilization of remote care will be associated with improved adherence to disease monitoring and complication screening guidelines and will increase patient satisfaction. Specific Aims: 1. Customize a patient-facing smartphone application (Nudge) designed to "coach" each patient toward a co-produced goal of convenient and effective health monitoring within the context of enhanced remote care. 2. Develop care processes that facilitate monitoring of respiratory status at home, using home spirometry and remote sputum collection, that include education, electronic reminders, and specimen collection/shipping supplies 3. Implement care processes that allow convenient access to necessary screening procedures, using the Nudge application to provide well-timed electronic reminders and track performance of screening tests.

Living with diabetes can be challenging, however Diabetes Self-Management Education and Support (DSMES) is well known to help persons with diabetes (PWDM) learn to cope with the uncertainties of life with diabetes. Unfortunately, DSMES is underutilized in the current health care setting.

we want to learn more about seizure activity while a patient with epilepsy is not seizing or is at "rest" using data from resting state intracranial EEG (rs-iEEG) and resting state functional MRI (rs-fMRI).

The purpose of this research study is to examine the number, distribution and types of white blood cells in the blood and gastrointestinal (GI) tract (large and small intestines) containing HIV. Nancie Archin, PhD, is the lead research scientist in the UNC HIV Cure Center for this study.

To discover how different forms of radiation affect the sleep, mood, and social function of adults with brain cancer. Doctors have suspected that these patients may be getting worse sleep, but no one has studied it. Since sleep is important in recovery and overall body function, understanding how radiation changes it will lead to a greater clinical understanding of the treatment.

This study is testing whether a small grant with or without peer mentoring will improve mental health for transgender people experience financial hardship.

The purpose of this project is to understand, from the perspective of formerly incarcerated individuals, the barriers and facilitators that people released from prison experience in establishing and engaging with health care, and how those barriers and facilitators may be impacted by participation in the FIT and FIT Connect transitional health care programs.

To provide a teaching tool to dermatology residents and assess its efficacy

The purpose of this study is to gather information to help improve the way hearing aids are fit for young children.

This project will examine the effects of a comprehensive intervention that blends financial, advising, and social supports on outcomes for students at public 4-year institutions who have transferred from community colleges. The transfer, accelerate, complete, engage (TrACE) intervention will take place at several UNC System universities. Two cohorts of students will be offered access to the TrACE program-the first starting in Fall 2022 and the second starting in Fall 2023. TrACE supports last for two years. The research team will explore the effects of access to TrACE on long-run outcomes such as degree completion (2-year and 3-year rates).
