The purpose of the DETECT study is to learn more about how some breast tissue features show up on a mammogram and what these features can tell us about the potential for a breast cancer diagnosis. Your participation will help us understand how the appearance of those breast tissue features is affected by hormone levels. Our objective is to collect urine samples that we will use to measure hormone levels. We will examine how hormone levels are related to breast tissue features measured from a breast cancer screening mammogram.

The purpose of this research study is to take an in-depth look at the North Carolina Collaborative for Mathematics Learning (NC2ML), a design-based research-practice partnership that has sustained for nearly a decade. The proposed study will explore the tools and methods that supported interaction between participants and why participants have remained engaged in the partnership for the last eight years.

To better understand the impact of UNC's Bridge the Gap program.

The purpose of this study is to determine if peak flow meter data correlate well with other measures of subglottic disease severity and to see if peak flow meters can be utilized to monitor subglottic stenosis disease progression at home.

This study will test how effectively changes in lung structure and function can be detected with a new inhaled gas combined with a MRI.

Obesity is associated with chronic inflammation, which increases the risk for other metabolic diseases. Omega-3 fatty acids and their derivatives have anti-inflammatory properties but are reduced in people who are overweight or obese. The purpose of this study is to determine if omega-3 fatty acid supplementation (SPM Active) for 3 months can effectively increase the biological levels of its lipid components in adult males who are overweight or obese. Additionally, we will determine if supplementation with SPM Active can improve mental health outcomes, as measured by validated surveys.

The purpose of this research study is to better understand the sources of plastic litter in diverse communities up and down the Mississippi River, and learn how models and other information can be better tailored to help inform community decision-making.

This study aims to compare two competency measurement scales used to evaluate student capabilities, skills, and competence to practice nutrition.

The goal of this study is to learn more about relationships, sexuality, family, work, and finances. This new information will help us understand factors that contribute to health among diverse adult populations including people who identify as straight or LGBT, as well as different races and ethnicities.

This study will use group model building methodologies to understand the dynamics preventing punitive policy change (de-implementation) for pregnant persons who use substances. We will be recruiting those involved in this process (e.g., policymakers, agency staff members, clinicians, and social workers, etc.).
