We are using a new digital software in our course, and we want to see student preferences of the software versus conventional teaching methods. An online survey for students will be given.
Outcome measures are ways we tell how well babies are doing in the hospital or after going home. Outcome measures used in research may not be the best. One reason is that medications, devices, or care practices can affect many different organ systems, so it is important evaluate more than one area. Another is deciding whether to measure outcomes while the infant is still in the hospital or to wait see how the infant is doing after going home. That decision is complex; one consideration is that some families cannot be reached after going home and their valuable information is lost. Finally, researchers and doctors often view outcomes differently than families. While it is important researchers and doctors make sure outcomes are valid and medically relevant, it is just as important to understand parents' and caregivers' opinions on outcome measures.
Our goal is to compare the research experiences of people who are in the Accelerated Research Program at UNC to people who are not in the program to see how well the program is working.
To assess how the Medical Staff of UNC view interventions to prevent COVID acquisition
This is a multicenter, open-label study to study the safety and characteristics of DNL310, an investigational drug designed to treat both the body and brain manifestations of Mucopolysaccharidosis type II (MPS II; Hunter syndrome). The plan is for each participant to start at a low dose and increase over time until a final dose is achieved. Blood, urine and CSF samples will be taken, and tests and assessments will be done to see how your child is doing in the study.
To determine whether newly-developed naloxone training materials increase how often pharmacists dispense naloxone.
The primary purpose of this research study is to learn about how the level of a protein called p16 changes in the blood of children, adolescents, and adults with sickle cell disease. This protein can provide information about cellular aging which has not been studied before in patients with sickle cell disease. This can help develop future areas of research into sickle cell disease.
The mission of the Collaborative Islet Transplant Registry (CITR) is to expedite progress and promote safety in islet/beta cell transplantation through the collection, analysis, and communication of comprehensive and current data on all islet/beta cell transplants performed in North America, Europe and Australia.
Our UNC-CH School of Social Work (SSW) team aims to investigate how the COVID-19 crisis has impacted intimate partner violence (IPV), sexual violence and assault (SVA), and human trafficking (HT) services; and develop and refine guidelines for adapting IPV, SVA, and HT services in response to COVID-19 and other public health emergencies. To address these aims, we will: (1) conduct a quantitative survey of North Carolina (NC) violence agencies, (2) conduct focus groups and interviews with practice experts in NC and nationally, and (3) conduct feedback sessions with service providers and practice experts.
The purpose of this research study to determine the outcomes of the introduction to therapeutic horticulture online education program and identify ways to improve this educational program. This study is important because it will help us to determine whether online delivery is capable of accomplishing the objectives of the training course and finding ways to improve it for the benefits of future participants.
