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.

Be CALM for Early College High Schools

Students in advanced academic programming, such as that provided in Early College High Schools (ECHSs), may experience stress that interferes with their academic success. Although ECHSs provide many supports to students, there is a need for additional programming to support students' social-emotional development and stress resilience. This study involves further developing, refining, implementing, and testing a multi-tiered adaptation of Be CALM (Cool, Attentive, Logical, and Mature), a mindfulness-based SEL program that aims to enhance staff and student wellbeing and SEL competencies. Mindfulness is a practice of Pressing the Pause on purpose and Tuning In to the present moment with a curious and kind attitude that has been shown to benefit social and emotional wellbeing in students. We expect that knowledge gained from this study will be used to advance understanding of how mindfulness may be helpful to ECHS students, teachers, and counselors.
