The goal of this NIH-funded study is to chart development in young autistic children to see how development varies by diagnosis and sex/gender. To do this, we will see families four times over the course of 18 months. Children will complete eye tracking tasks and behavioral assessments.
To check to see if teaching patients sign language before surgery will help with communicating after surgery when they cannot talk
This research study aims to identify the national need of family medicine residency educators regarding point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) education and resources. The study will collect data on the state of POCUS education and resources at medical universities across the country through an optional survey sent to faculty who are members of the Society of Teachers of Family Medicine. The questions in the survey focus on the respondee's level of POCUS training, use of POCUS in their day-to-day practice, and desire for different forms of POCUS content to integrate into their residency programs. The data will be collected and evaluated using Qualtrics.

Professionalism is the first of six core competencies required in the curriculum of residency programs. Significant research has been done exploring the domains of professionalism in general and within the context of anesthesiology and anesthesiology training. Although little research has been done to identify breaches in professionalism most common today, research has shown there is a correlation between unprofessional behavior among physicians and patient dissatisfaction, lawsuits, and negative patient outcomes. The purpose of this study is to identify the most commonly perceived domains of unprofessional behavior observed in anesthesiology residency training programs. Additionally, we wish to see if professional lapses may stem from generational differences between teachers and trainees in their perception of professional behavior.
The purpose of this research study is to explore the ways in which Family Moral, Wellness, and Recreation (MWR) libraries achieve the mission of MWR services by examining libraries in context of creating resiliency in their member communities through their diverse library programs and services. Library programs are currently a popular research field in Information and Library Science (ILS), but little research has looked explicitly at MWR library programming, and how those programs are created for their user community, the military population, making this topic an area of interest in the ILS field. Understanding how MWR libraries utilize their programming to meet the mission of MWR will create opportunities for future research and assessment of library programs and their impact on resiliency outcomes in the military community.
The purpose of this research study is to understand how students use ChatGPT alongside Google Scholar and the library catalog to conduct scholarly research. The study will consist of a survey, an observational study, and a short post-observation interview. The results of this research will be used to make general recommendations for library professionals to better understand and engage students' information retrieval strategies amidst ChatGPT.
The purpose of this research is to improve early diagnosis of familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) and through the implementation of cascade screening, or family genetic testing for FH. To identify areas for improvement, we are recruiting stakeholders to participate in qualitative interviews. We will use this information to better understand barriers and facilitators for a specific diagnostic strategy called cascade screening. This strategy involves contacting family members to discuss their risk of having familial hypercholesterolemia and arranging for screening to check for very high cholesterol and genes associated with it. Once this tool has been implemented, we will conduct 20 more qualitative interviews to further understand barriers and facilitators to adoption of the diagnostic tool.
To evaluate the accuracy of a new software in the prediction of growth and rupture of aortic aneurysms.
The purpose of this research study is to explore the post-treatment barriers faced by adolescent and young adult (AYA) cancer survivors to therefore adapt the Needs Assessment and Service Bridge (NA-SB) tool produced by the UNC AYA Cancer Program. You are being asked to take part in a research study because you are an adolescent or young adult who has experienced cancer survivorship.
