Mentorship for medical students applying to competitive residencies such as Otolaryngology is vital for their success in matching into the field. Despite medical student advising being important in Otolaryngology, there is almost no research looking into the effectiveness of the strategies Otolaryngology departments utilize in order to mentor and successful match students. The purpose of this study is to evaluate over the last 10 years how UNC medical students who applied into Otolaryngology feel about the advising process they received.
The purpose of this study is to define patient populations who may recover left atrial mechanical function rapidly (<24 hours) following cardioversion. Defining these characteristics will help us weigh the risks and benefits of anticoagulation following cardioversion.
The purpose of the NC PASE project is to create tailored supervision guidelines (TSG) that will inform the way probation officers supervise their caseloads.
This study will gather information about patients who are taking new medicines for Alzheimer's disease. We'll keep an eye on how these patients are doing in the long run, tracking things like how they're responding to treatment, what their overall health outcomes are like, and how safe these new treatments really are when used in the real world. The goal of this study is to get a better understanding of how these therapies actually work for a diverse group of people, not just the people who usually participate in clinical trials.
Analyze time expenditure of medical students through hourly logging, daily subjective happiness ratings, and performance on examinations.
The goal of this study is to gather information about people with a chromosome 15 condition. The information will be linked to information from other studies in the LADDER database. Identifying information will be removed. Researchers will be able to use the information to try to improve the quality of life for people living with these conditions.
The study examines the knowledge that school staff in Rhode Island have about young people who are caregivers in their families.

The purpose of this study is to improve the intake assessment tool of homeless shelters, to better meet the needs of the potential residents. This will be done by identifying and addressing gaps in the intake assessment tools that homeless shelters use. Specifically, it will focus on addressing gaps related to social determinants of health (SDOH). By identifying and addressing these gaps, homeless shelters will be able to better assess the SDOH needs of their potential residents. This will help identify more needs of homeless individuals, promote health, and reduce the risk for negative health outcomes in this population.
