Do you have any of your baby teeth or are you a parent who has kept your child's baby teeth? Are you a young adult or a parent of a child age 25 or under? Did you know scientists can learn all about different medications, foods, and environmental exposures in a child's early life from their teeth? You may be able to take part in a research study to learn what factors increase children's risk of developing EoE (eosinophilic esophagitis)! We are looking for children and young adults (age 0-25) with or without EoE to volunteer. Compensation will be provided.
You're in your prime, but how well do our lungs age? If you're 25-35 years old, you might be eligible to join a study exploring lung health and the factors that contribute to lung diseases and conditions later in life. Compensation provided.
This study is trying to learn more about a medication called sparsentan, and how it can help the kidneys filter protein and slow the decline of kidney function. The amount of protein found in the urine (called proteinuria) is seen as a marker of kidney function. Lowering proteinuria levels is associated with better kidney health outcomes.

In this study, we want to learn about the effects of different kinds of force on the knee when walking on a treadmill. We will do this by looking at MRI images of knee cartilage in people with and without a history of ACL reconstruction.
We are doing this study to learn how the brain and muscles of the arm and hand communicate with one another in children experiencing weakness on one side of the body. This information will be important to help us determine how well someone may respond to certain therapies or treatments to improve the use of their arm/hand.
We still have a lot to learn about why people develop glomerular disease and what the best medicines are to treat these diseases. Diabetes is a common, chronic illness and many people with glomerular disease also have diabetes. Currently, there is no information telling us the best ways to treat patients with both diabetes and glomerular disease, or how to counsel them about prognosis and risks for complications. This substudy of the Cure Glomerulopathy Network brings together information and laboratory specimens from patients with diabetes and glomerular disease to speed up and improve health research for their care.
In this study, we want to learn more about brain and body outcomes in young adults with and without a history of a concussion from a sport. By learning more about you and your lifestyle, it will help us to inform how we help and rehabilitate sport-related concussions in young adults.
We are developing training materials to help community pharmacists talk with people about suicide prevention. Your input will help us understand what might make people feel more comfortable speaking to pharmacists when they are experiencing a crisis or approaching a pharmacist if they needed to talk to someone about suicide. We will use this information to help develop important content for future training and education relevant to pharmacists.
In this study, we want to see if certain advertisements change children's attention to food. We want to learn if this can increase children's cravings and intake of snack foods. We are looking for children ages 6-10 to complete one in-person study visit. Children will watch a TV show and complete a series of taste tests, brain games, and surveys. A parent or guardian will be asked to fill out surveys about their family's activities and eating habits. Participants will be compensated for their time and participation.
