Researchers at UNC-Chapel Hill are interested in learning from community members about how flooding from hurricanes affects their ability to access healthcare needs and services during and after a flooding event in Eastern North Carolina. The goal of this research is to gather with community members to make a list of concerns, write questions we can research, and select the questions that are most important to the community. Ultimately, we would like affected community members to have a voice in the type of research that is funded related to flooding and community health so that local and state decision-makers can respond to what matters most to the community.

Climate change is one of the biggest problems that humanity has faced in its history. Almost everybody has access to the internet in some form in the US, and a significant amount of research (academic or not) is done by searching the web for articles or websites that claim expert knowledge of the topic of interest. In the case of climate change, many of the authoritative websites in the US are federal government funded, from varying US agencies. These agency websites, given the amount of resources they command and the reputation provided by being a part of the federal government, have an immense opportunity to inform the public with reputable information and influence public action on climate change. The goal of this research is to inspect how credible some of the US government climate change websites actually are.
There exists limited empirical evidence to inform the structure and content of the current NCAA exit interviews which restricts their impact on post-career health and well-being. This study hopes to bridge that gap and to understand the student-athlete transition experience including outcomes of mental, physical, social, and occupational functioning. In this aim, we are inviting you to participate in an evidence-based, survey addendum to the standard of care exit interview. A total of 120 individuals will be invited to participate in this portion of the study. A subgroup of 30 participants will be invited to participate in a follow-up interview. If you are selected for follow-up, we will reach out to you in no more than 60 days after the completion of this survey.
