NRG-GI008 - Colon Adjuvant Chemotherapy Based on Evaluation of Residual Disease

Have you been diagnosed with colon cancer? If so, you may be able to take part in a research study looking to find out what kind of chemotherapy to recommend to patients based on the presence or absence of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) after surgery for colon cancer and if this approach is better or worse than the usual approach for your colon cancer.

Nutrition, Eating, and Mealtimes for Older Adults with Myelodysplastic Syndromes and Acute Myeloid Leukemia, and their Care Partners

This is a study for people diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukemia and Myelodysplastic Syndromes who are receiving treatment with hypomethylating agents and Venetoclax. Specifically, we want to learn more about nutrition, eating, and mealtimes for older adults (age 60+) with these conditions and their care partners. Care partners can be a spouse, family member, or friend helping a patient with AML/MDS. We want to understand nutrition, eating, and mealtimes over time throughout the first two cycles of treatment. We also want to learn more about the quality of life for patients and care partners.

Adolescent Mood during Puberty and Testosterone (AMPT)

During puberty, adolescents grow and change a lot which may make life seem more stressful and emotional. Male and female adolescents experience the changes associated with puberty differently, possibly because of different responses to changes in hormones, including testosterone and estrogen. We are interested in learning more about the role of these hormones in regulating emotional processing and mood symptoms, and whether a mobile training program can help improve mood during the pubertal transition. Participation is 8 weeks with two monthly follow-up surveys. Compensation provided.

REHEARSE Self-Care Study

My team and I have designed an educational website to be used by men and women who have had a recent heart attack. Our goal is for participants who join the study to use the information provided to learn how to improve their self-care to help prevent another heart attack. In order to know whether our educational program is helpful, we are looking for men and women like yourself to try using and give us feedback about it.

Eating Behavior and Brain Adaptations (BBNxT)

We want to learn how people's brains adapt when responding to various food stimuli and decision-making processes. We also want to learn about brain responses to food and beverage consumption. To do this, we will use taste tests, surveys, behavioral tasks, and neuroimaging (fMRI scan).

Neurologic Function across the Lifespan: A Prospective, LONGitudinal, and Translational Study for Former National Football League Players

Leveraging our decades of experience studying the acute and chronic effects of traumatic brain injury (TBI) and concussion, our investigative team propose an innovative, translational approach that bridges both preclinical and clinical studies. We propose testing multiple potential preventative and therapeutic strategies in the preclinical setting, while simultaneously conducting a prospective, longitudinal study of neurologic health outcomes associated with concussion and sub-concussive exposure in former NFL players. Our prior studies of former NFL players over the past 15 years provide us with a unique opportunity to conduct a truly prospective, longitudinal study of long-term neurologic health outcomes and determine any possible association with concussion and repetitive sub-concussive exposure. In parallel, we have developed animal models of repeated concussions (repetitive mild TBI [rmTBI]) and chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE). We have studied the effects of readily translatable preventative and therapeutic strategies, including the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonist memantine, low dose carbon monoxide
