Genetic counseling using videos in patients with ovarian and uterine cancer

Some female cancers may be genetic, meaning they are passed down from a parent through DNA (our genetic code or roadmap). In people with certain types of ovarian and uterine cancer, it may be helpful to test their DNA for any errors that can cause cancer. There are lots of important pieces of information to share when someone is diagnosed with cancer, and we are exploring a new way to share information. Patients with certain types of ovarian or uterine cancers will watch a short video that explains what genetic testing is and why it is so important. They will fill out a survey about what they think about the video and if the information is helpful.

"Does the way that information is presented to people affect how they learn about genetics and if they want to be in research studies?"

We are recruiting 216 people at events in the community to look at different types of educational materials about genomics. We will survey them before and after to see if and how their knowledge and willingness to participate in research was affected. Then, we will ask 30 of those people to participate in a 45-60 minute interview over Zoom. This will help us to gather more information about their preferences and attitudes toward genomic research. We will be recruiting from a diverse group of people and offering materials in both English and Spanish. The purpose of this is to improve health literacy and willingness of participate in genomic research in order to improve health equity.

Activating the archive: Understanding research behaviors related to the Greensboro Massacre

This research will examine the variable ways that people have used and interpreted collections related to the Greensboro Massacre in Wilson Library, and how they conceptualize their research in relation to memory, history, and justice. This project will involve semi-structured interviews with five to eight researchers, working to understand how the interviewees interpret and disseminate their findings from the archive. Afterwards, I will compare interview responses, in order to trace common and divergent themes. I will interview both academic researchers, as well as community historians and activists.
