This research aims to (1) assess familiarity with DTx across different healthcare provider roles, (2) evaluate perceptions of DTx, and (3) determine the willingness to prescribe, recommend, or adopt DTx as a therapeutic option. Additionally, it seeks to (4) measure changes in perceptions before and after providing further information about the potential benefits and content of DTx.
Assess the clinical response to treatment with mirikizumab among patients with chronic inflammatory conditions of the pouch using standardized outcome assessments.
There is a movement toward addressing social risk factors as part of healthcare delivery, with similar efforts launched by the CF Foundation. However, current social screening tools do not capture the unique risks and needs of people with CF, have not been tailored to adults with CF vs caregivers of children with CF, and have not been adapted to multidisciplinary CF care delivery. Our work also showed <20% of those who report needs access help, and found barriers related to stigma, guilt, or fear. It is critical to develop a social screening instrument that is specific to adults and caregivers of children with CF, acceptable to them, and rigorously tested for reliability and validity. Using a community-engaged process, we will systematically address these knowledge gaps.

Speak with Medicaid providers about the upcoming change to how providers are reimbursed for services
As machine learning is accepted as one of the most powerful tools to solve problems that involve a large amount of data, more and more application areas started to explore and adopt machine learning methods into their workflows. The first step of developing a machine learning model is to determine the target variable, i.e. what to predict. For instance, if a practitioner wants to develop a model to assist hiring decisions, he/she may choose a candidate's performance score as the prediction target to train the machine learning model. In practice, practitioners need to experiment and evaluate a large set of potential target variables until they reach a satisfactory one. We would like to automate the evaluation of target variables and recommend good ones to the users. The purpose of this study is to understand how different recommendation strategies influence the target selection process.
