Entrepreneurship in Guatemala

Prior research emphasizes that opportunities are a "foundational element in entrepreneurship," including their "identification evaluation, and implementation." (Foo, et al. 2020; Shane & Venkataraman, 2000). Entrepreneurial opportunities are those "opportunities to bring into existence new goods, services, raw materials, and organizing methods that allow outputs to be sold at more than their cost of production." (Shane & Venkataraman, 2000). The opportunity recognition and exploitation process is critical for venture growth and success, as it is the means by which entrepreneurs differentiate themselves from competitors and earn a sustainable profit. Yet "[m]uch is left unanswered on the opportunity recognition process in emerging regions." (Foo, et al. 2020). While researchers have developed theoretical propositions as to how entrepreneurs in developing countries may identify and exploit opportunities, we have little empirical knowledge about this critical entrepreneurial process in the developing country context, leading to calls for further research. (Dencker, et al. 2021; Foo,

Heart to Heart: BP Control Partners

The purpose of this research study is to see if home-based blood pressure monitoring when combined with team-based care led by your doctor's office can improve blood pressure levels in comparison to usual patterns of care. The long-term hope is to reduce risks for bad outcomes such as stroke by improving blood pressure control.

ACE Project

The first 2,000 days are critical periods of child development, laying the foundation for young children's cognitive, language, and socio-emotional development. This age span is also a critical period for racial identity. Positive racial identity has been linked to Black children's achievement and socio-emotional.iii Research has found that when Black children receive messages about having positive self-worth and self-identity, balanced with messages about racial inequalities, this results in joyful learning and socio-emotional outcomes,iiiiv academic curiosity, and persistence.v Thus, a focus on positive racial identity may be one particular strategy to ensure the healthy development and learning for Black children to combat against racism and biases they are likely to experience. As evidenced by the planning grant data, Black children experience different forms of racism and inequities in their household and learning environments. We hypothesize that attending to culturally responsive teaching, and more precisely, African-centered teaching practices, is a more effective

Symptom Monitoring in Hemodialysis

This study is comparing two approaches for monitoring and addressing symptoms among adult patients with kidney failure who are treated with hemodialysis. For the first approach patients use an electronic system twice a month to report their symptoms. The system sends alerts to their medical team at the dialysis clinic about the reported symptoms and gives suggestions about how to manage them. The system also provides reports that show patients and their medical team the reported symptoms over time. For the second approach patients complete a quality of life questionnaire that includes questions about symptoms once a year. The questionnaire does not have follow-up support like alerts, symptom management guidance, or reports. In addition, researchers will talk to patients, dialysis clinic personnel, and medical providers about their experiences using the electronic symptom monitoring system to learn about how to best use patient-reported outcome measures in dialysis care.

Delirium Tele-medicine Validation Study

We don't know whether discharging patients with active delirium (aka confusion) home is appropriate. Returning patients to their home may lead to improvement and quicker delirium resolution. Alternately, it may be harmful as delirious patients may not be able to appropriately care for themselves in the home environment or follow discharge instructions. Consequently, they may get sicker, requiring hospital readmission or worse. Currently, there is no good way to assess delirium in the home setting. This greatly limits the ability to monitor and study this vulnerable population. The ability to perform in-home delirium assessments will prove invaluable to researchers investigating the a-propriateness of discharging actively delirious patients' home versus keeping them in the hospital until resolution of their delirium. Further, it will provide a method for clinicians to perform quick, remote delirium assessments of their patients.
