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.

Muscle Fatigue Reduction due to Electrical Stimulation

Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES) is a commonly prescribed technology for restoration of limb function and muscular rehabilitation. FES works by artificially stimulating muscle fibers to generate a contraction. However, one of the main issues with the use of FES is the rapid onset of muscle fatigue, which makes it difficult to perform long-term periodic motions such as walking. Recent research has shown methods successful at mitigating the impact of muscle fatigue using multiple electrodes. Instead of using the traditional approach of two FES pads targeting a specific muscle group, this study will use multiple electrodes and cycles the order in which the electrodes are stimulating thus targeting specific muscles within the muscle group and reducing the muscle fatigue. However, how to optimize the current through multiple electrodes is not known yet. This study will help determine the optimization of multiple electrodes for reducing fatigue.

Assessing Self-Guided Resources in the Library Makerspace

The purpose of this study is to understand how well the learning resources at UNC-Chapel Hill's Library Makerspace meet the needs of first-generation and international undergraduate students. The study will explore what resources are available, how they are designed to help students learn, and whether students feel these resources reflect their cultural values, learning styles, and goals. To do this, I will look closely at the learning materials, talk with students in a focus group, and test a new resource based on their feedback. The goal is to find ways to improve the Makerspace's self-guided learning tools so they better support students from diverse backgrounds. This research will help the Library Makerspace create a more welcoming and effective learning environment for all students.
