We are using an EEG to study cognitive processes during the estimation of the probability of future positive and negative life events. The EEG is placed on your scalp and records your electrical brain waves during a computer task. With this experiment, we hope to learn more about the neurophysiological processes of probability estimation.
We study how the immune system protects against viruses and bacteria without causing excessive harm to organs like the lungs, heart, and kidneys. We need a small amount of blood to study how immune cells ("white blood cells") turn on important proteins when they sense a bacteria or virus nearby.
Have you been diagnosed with Eosinophilic Esophagitis (EoE) and therapies you've tried don't work, or you aren't interested in taking drugs to treat your EoE?

If so, then you may be eligible to participate in a study to see if an individualized diet elimination therapy works to treat EoE.
In this study, we want to compare stress response and wellness in healthy volunteers and people with psychosis. This study involves questionnaires, measurement of how you process information, and other psychological research tasks.
Have you been listed for kidney transplant at UNC? If so, you may be able to take part in a research study to help us learn how the process of waiting for a kidney transplant impacts you.
We are looking at the early experiences that may shape children's cognitive, behavioral, and brain development over the first three years of life.
We are examining the impact of an online module series for caregivers of autistic adolescents on supporting daily living skills acquisition at home. Caregivers will learn about motivating your autistic teen to learn daily living skills, collaborating with your teen to set goals, identifying key daily living skills, and teaching strategies for home use.
The purpose of this research study is to assess how people respond to stimuli of different monetary values and how fast people can inhibit ongoing motor responses.
We are doing a research study to learn more about how people make impressions on one another. We also want to learn how they think about social feedback and how this relates to how they think.
The purpose of this study is to better understand how people learn and remember information.
