Have you ever wondered what environmental toxins you are exposed to on a daily basis, and how it might affect your health? The STRIVE study is looking for volunteers who would like to provide blood, urine, and/or saliva, as well as home samples such as soil, dust, and/or water. In this study, we want to learn more about the environmental factors that contribute to advanced liver disease and liver cancer. We are looking for healthy volunteers and people with liver cirrhosis who live in either North Carolina or Georgia to take part.
We are conducting a study to ask young adults with cervical cancer what information they think would be useful to include in a skill-building program to help navigate the financial aspects of cancer treatment. We will interview young adults with cervical cancer to learn about what is important to them and then ask for feedback on versions of the program as we develop it.
Do you have Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer? Have you previously been treated with Osimertinib? If so, you may be eligible for a trial comparing osimertinib in combination with other medications to treat your lung cancer. Please reach out if you're interested!
This research study aims to use electroencephalography (EEG) to refine our understanding of the neural mechanisms involved in suppressing distracting information.
The purpose of this research study is to learn from fathers of infants about their experiences with and role in infant bottle-feeding, their knowledge about responsive feeding, and what factors influence their engagement in infant feeding.
Have you been diagnosed with early stage triple negative breast cancer? We are asking you to take part in this research study because you have been diagnosed with triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) and have recently completed preoperative chemotherapy in combination with pembrolizumab, followed by breast surgery. The chemotherapy plus pembrolizumab produced a pathologic complete response (pCR), meaning that no remaining cancer was found during your breast surgery.
In this project, we want to learn more about transgender and nonbinary individuals' sexual satisfaction. Sexual satisfaction is a prominent indicator of an individual's well-being and satisfaction with life. Current research focuses mainly on cisgender heterosexual populations. By focusing on people who identify under the nonbinary umbrella, in addition to binary-identifying trans people, we hope to examine how gender, the sociopolitical world, and a person's sexual satisfaction all intersect.
Do you have a child between 12-14 years of age who is healthy but has some symptoms of anxiety or unexplained nervousness? You may be able to take part in a study with your child to better understand how anxiety develops across adolescence in brain and stress responses. Compensation provided.
Early detection of memory problems (such as seen in Alzheimer's Disease) in older adults is essential for planning strategies to improve patients' everyday function and quality of life. While patients and family members often talk to clinicians, our proposed research system is meant to capture changes in memory before they are identified by clinicians. You are being asked to be in the study because you are interested in helping us determine whether changes in voice could be related to physical function and memory changes over time.
Finding new drugs is a long, expensive process. Drug repurposing, using an old drug for a new disorder, can make this process shorter and cheaper, and can occur by chance when a patient has two medical conditions that are treatable by the same drug. We hope that including you, the consumer, as a partner in drug development through self-report of unexpected benefits from medicinal agents could identify some with potential for repurposing. Your responses to a short Social Media survey may help you and others in the future.
