The University of North Carolina Age-Based Genomic Screening program is an innovative paradigm that aims to provide targeted and highly actionable genetic information to parents via their child's routine wellness visits. The final stage of the program involves a pilot study that will expand pediatric genetic screening in well-child care across the states. In preparation for this final stage, we will conduct interviews with parents or caregiver of children in North Carolina to inform an implementation plan, educational and training materials, and evaluation plan for the pilot study. The interviews will consist of questions aimed at assessing barriers and facilitators to the implementation of ABGS, including parents' and children's healthcare and genetic screening experiences (such as blood and saliva collection), perceptions and interest in the ABGS program, expectations and experiences with healthcare providers, and the information needed for participation decisions.
This study aims to evaluate the prevalence and risk factors of Long COVID following SARS-COV-2 infection through survey responses to better understand the condition.
This study is helping to plan and evaluate a SNAP in Schools component of a Coordinating SNAP and Nutrition Support project being carried out by partner organizations in North Carolina. The study includes a survey to see if families attending Buncombe County Schools are aware of and using food resources such as Food and Nutrition Services (FNS)/Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) and school meals.

The purpose of this study is to describe how meals were served through federal child nutrition programs during the COVID-19 school closures. This study involves interviews with child nutrition directors who will also have the opportunity to submit video diaries about their programs. A goal of this research is to provide information that can inform future improvements to policy and practice related to federal child nutrition programs and identify innovative approaches to running these programs that occurred during the crisis but can be sustained when normalcy resumes.
This study will investigate two different systems to help analysts enter operator comments (i.e., annotations) on transcripts of audio conversations.
The purpose of this research study is to assess how inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) influences reproductive and contraceptive concerns for young women with IBD and to explore their preferences regarding contraceptive counseling in the IBD clinic. The results from this study will give providers essential insight into the contraceptive use concerns and preferences of young women with IBD.
The purpose of this study is to develop and validate an Artificial intelligence (AI)-based tissue sample analysis tool that can predict response & progression rates to chemotherapy in intermediate-risk (IR) and high-risk (HR) Non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) patients. This study will use AI-based tissue sample analysis as a possible tool to help predict which patients are at high-risk for cancer recurrence and progression after surgery and chemotherapy treatment. Specimens will be obtained for each patient before treatment and at the 12, 24, & 36 month follow-up to be analyzed using the AI-based tool.
The purpose of this study is to learn about how youth engage with their community, how they believe they can make changes in their community and how youth groups can help.
The purpose of this research is to examine how individuals interact with different versions of GPT chatbots to discuss key social issues.
