To survey a population of older adults receiving primary care at the UNC Geriatrics Specialty Clinic and characterize: their perceived reasons for using MyChart, frequency with which they communicate using MyChart, their perceptions of how MyChart should be used in clinical care, and their perceptions of the benefits and limitations of using MyChart in clinical care.
We are conducting a survey of people out drinking at bars and restaurants in downtown Chapel Hill to learn more about their thoughts and experiences with fake IDs. We are then giving an ID scanner to businesses that sell alcohol in Chapel Hill and Carrboro to help them identify fake IDs. After a 7-month study period, we will interview staff members at those businesses to learn about their experiences using the technology.
For my research project, I would like to explore the ways in which gender-variance has been constructed and understood through an individual's experience with Buddhism and its practices, particularly focusing on the Cambodian diaspora in North Carolina as well Cambodians living in Cambodia. By seeking to understand the relationship between religiosity and queerness in Cambodia, I believe that a counter-narrative can be constructed in resistance to the dominant Western narratives of transness. These narratives will help us better understand the ways in which spiritual and queer bodies have been regulated by academia and trans embodiment politics. My research questions are presented below: 1. How do Buddhist beliefs and practices inform and influence the identity formation of gender-variant populations in Cambodia and Khmer populations in the U.S.? 2. In what ways have Western conceptions of queerness regulated spiritual and queer bodies in the Global South?

Participants in this study will be asked to give a small blood sample during a routine clinic check-up. Researchers will be looking at blood components and compare with expected venetoclax concentrations. The overall goal is to be able to use specific blood components ("biomarkers") to better optimize venetoclax doses for CLL patients.
