To collect and store specimens from people who have been exposed to a natural or manmade disaster.

Diversity and inclusion offices use various communication strategies as part of their work to create a more welcoming and inclusive campus environment. This research involves interviewing diversity and inclusion professionals at universities in the Southeastern US to better understand their primary goals, decision-making processes, and communication efforts.

We propose to develop and test health messages about e-cigarettes and study their impact. Findings will inform e-cigarette warning policies and communication campaigns.

The purpose of this study is to develop a prospective longitudinal cohort/registry of lymphoma patients in Malawi to address a lack of prospective longitudinal data related to lymphoma in sub-Saharan Africa, and to serve as a foundation for developing optimal treatment strategies in this challenging environment.

This research examines how alternative food networks (AFNs) in Turkey enact autonomy by connecting various stakeholders, including small-scale producers, cooperatives, and consumers across the country, under a solidarity-based organization. Successful data collection will enable the researcher to obtain a deep understanding of the AFNs - specifically how they challenge the gendered production relations, maintain fair production and distribution chains, and finally, keep solidarity as the core principle of the network.

The purpose of this study is to gain a better understanding of the knowledge acquisition and information seeking habits of athletic trainers regarding the prevention and management of exertional heat illness. The study also aims to understand the facilitators and barriers associated with obtaining evidence-based information and implementing it in clinical practice. This will allow for the improvement of information delivery and knowledge transfer in the future.

Early Check is a research study to check newborns for rare but serious health problems. • Early Check does extra, free tests on the newborn screening blood sample that was already taken in the hospital using a heel prick. The tests allow us to find newborns with these health problems before symptoms start. • The goal of Early Check is to learn about the health problems and look for better treatments to help babies that have them.

The purpose of this work is to address institutional administrative capacity with input from UNC Chapel Hill and North Carolina Central University post-doctoral fellows and faculty to better understand experiences associated with previous research collaborations and assess perceived benefits and barriers to developing research capacity among investigators from under-represented minority groups.

This preliminary fieldwork will allow me to assess site feasibility in Georgia, North Carolina, and Colombia for an ethnography of agricultural intermediaries and will shape my future dissertation project and course of studies. The research seeks to expand understandings of extension, an agricultural development model characterized by top-down dissemination of university-based research. Studying how extension employees navigate between their bureaucratic organizations and the farmers they serve -- noting who is considered an expert, how knowledge and technology are produced, and who is involved in the process (and under what circumstances) -- has potential implications for a more just food system.
