This study aims to understand how archaeologists keep records of their discoveries and artifacts. The goal is to discover the best ways to teach archaeologists about organizing and saving information relevant to their excavations. The study considers examples from the past and present and will rely on discussions with specialists and the analysis of the "Work Digital / Think Archive" guidebook made jointly by DigVentures and the Archaeological Archives Forum. The goal is to spread the word about the efforts happening now to set up the best frameworks and workflows for archaeologists to handle their digital data and create intentional standards for preserving their findings.

This study is examining Medicaid "unwinding", which refers to the process occurring nationwide of states resuming eligibility redeterminations for Medicaid enrollees after three years of continuous pandemic-related coverage protections. Over 15 million people are estimated to lose Medicaid coverage through this process, with nearly half still remaining eligible but facing administrative barriers to renew their coverage. This study focuses specifically on North Carolina's experiences with unwinding, utilizing a case study approach.The study aims to explore the factors shaping North Carolina's response, challenges encountered, and outcomes thus far. It also examines potential solutions to strengthen Medicaid policy for future redeterminations.

This pilot project will test a new wearable device which will monitor elbow motion in people who are recovering from stroke.

The purpose of this research study is to collect and store blood samples from patients with heart disease at UNC-Chapel Hill for use in future research. Investigators will use these blood samples to identify new ways to measure substances made by our bodies that may help predict risk for developing heart disease or response to certain medications.

The purpose of this study is to understand tobacco retailers' perceptions about the implications of retail-based policies for their business and assess feasibility of conducting interviews with tobacco retailers.

The purpose of this study is to show that the Modified Percent Depth (MPD) (a way to calculate the severity of a pectus deformity) can be used in many different clinical settings and can reliably determine the severity of pectus excavatum.

Hand osteoarthritis is a common cause of hand pain and often does not require referral to rheumatology. With the anticipated workforce shortage of rheumatologists, referral trends to rheumatology for osteoarthritis need to be further evaluated. We will be conducting online surveys with UNC healthcare providers to gauge their understanding and comfort in diagnosing and managing patients with hand osteoarthritis. This will include short hand osteoarthritis video recordings covering various aspects including diagnosis, differential diagnosis, management, prognosis and appropriate referral procedures to rheumatology. This data will provide us information about comfort level in diagnosis, management and understand referral patterns from primary care providers.

To use a human centered design process to partner with community co-designers to understand how mentorship within a developmentally positive environment supports the mediators of reflection, belonging, and meaning-making to increase neurodiverse students' self-advocacy, self-perception, self-purpose, and ultimately in service of promoting academic performance, thriving and well-being. The purpose of our project is to explore how the components of metacognition play a unique part in shaping the psychological and social landscape of young individuals with learning differences. Our study will examine how the effective application of these assets can transcend theatre arts through STEAM environments to support diverse learners with continuity throughout their learning experience.

The purpose is to provide students enrolled in certain introduction-level Poli Sci courses with firsthand research experiences, and to provide political science researchers with a method for research participant recruitment.

The purpose of this study is to examine the association between religion/culture and experiences of contamination.
