NEPTUNE

The purpose of this study is to learn more about three kidney diseases called nephrotic syndrome: Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis (FSGS), Minimal Change Disease (MCD), and Membranous Nephropathy (MN). By collecting health information and laboratory samples from individuals who have these diseases and by making this information available to researchers, we hope to gain new knowledge about these diseases and to find better treatments for them.

Kidney Disease Research Registry

We are looking for patients with kidney disease and healthy controls (no kidney disease) to provide blood samples, fill out surveys, and provide health related information to help investigators learn more about how to better diagnose and treat kidney disease. The information you provide will go into a "library" of data for doctors and researchers across the world to use for research projects. If you are a kidney patient, we are able to use your information to find out if you are eligible for treatment studies/other studies in the future.

Collection of Tissue, Blood, Urine, Hair, and Saliva for Research Related to Patients with Genitourinary Malignancies

Do you have bladder, kidney, prostate, or another genitourinary cancer diagnosis? If so, you may be able to take part in a research study collecting specimens (e.g., blood, urine, saliva, tissue) during your already scheduled appointments. Collecting these specimens may help researchers develop new ways to detect cancer earlier or to more effectively treat cancer.

Reworking the Reading Room: An Analysis of Pandemic Responses in Special Collections Libraries

This qualitative study seeks to determine the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on digital projects conducted by special collections libraries at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and Duke University. Specifically, this research will utilize case studies to analyze the shift to digital resources following the closure of universities in the spring of 2020, and compare this data to the current operations of special collections libraries at both a public and private university.

Developing and Strengthening Cannabis Warnings Aims 2 and 3

Aim 2 is to develop a set of evidence-based cannabis warnings and identify which warning characteristics increase perceived warning effectiveness. Aim 3 is to experimentally determine if large cannabis warnings with characteristics found to be promising in Aim 2 increase risk perceptions. This research is conducted so that states can implement the findings into their cannabis warning regulations.

Development and Effect of an Electronic Learning Module on Defibrillator Competence in Anesthesia Providers

The purpose of this study is to find out if an online learning module can be just as effective as in-person training for teaching anesthesia residents how to use a defibrillator. A defibrillator is a machine that helps restart a person's heart when it stops beating. The study will look at how well the residents can perform important tasks, like using the defibrillator to deliver a shock to the heart, both right after they learn and four months later. The goal is to see if the online training works as well as traditional hands-on training and if the residents prefer one method over the other.
