he purpose of Parents and Infants Inter(X)action Intervention (PIXI) is to study ways of supporting the early development of infants diagnosed with rare neurogenetic disorders in their first year of life. PIXI is funded by the John Merck Fund and is led by RTI International (RTI) in collaboration with researchers at the University of North Carolina Chapel Hill. The team includes neurodevelopmental psychologists, early interventionists, and experts in neurogenetic conditions (e.g., fragile X syndrome, Angelman syndrome), autism spectrum disorder, and early childhood development. The goal of PIXI is to provide developmental and behavioral support for infants with rare neurogenetic disorders through a two-phase targeted parent-mediated intervention program.

In Aim 1, we will use existing research and expert review to develop new text and pictorial LCC warnings and test the new warnings using online experiments to identify warnings that adult LCC users perceive as most effective. The proposed study will fill critical gaps regarding which characteristics make LCC warning labels most effective and provide needed evidence on how LCC warnings influence LCC behavioral intentions. Our overarching goal is to develop effective LCC warnings that reduce cancer and other health risks.

Examine the impact of the educational interventions on stigmatizing attitudes towards people with mental illness.

This study has two objectives. The first is to determine how authentic assessment is currently used in dental school curriculums. The second is to assess what potential barriers might limit the implementation of authentic assessment in more courses. Course directors will be surveyed on their use and barriers to use of authentic assessment to address these objectives.

The purpose of this study is to create a biobank by collecting and storing specimens, such as blood and tissue, along with medical information such as demographics and treatment, from a large group of patients with pancreatic tumors. This biobank can then be used by future studies focused on pancreatic tumors.

This project will define findings of patients referred for colonoscopy following a positive Cologuard® test using retrospective analysis of one community Gastroenterology practice.

The purpose of this research study is to try and teach a computer program to assess how a dialysis vascular access fistula is maturing, when it could be ready to put needles in, or when it needs to be fixed to allow it to mature better; based on the electronic stethoscope recordings.

Theory is needed to understand determinants of implementation at the organizational level. Developing a framework of implementation determinants based on organizational theory will leverage decades of untapped scholarship to optimize efforts to improve clinical practice.
