Evaluating Provider Awareness and Understanding of Hand Osteoarthritis

Hand osteoarthritis is a common cause of hand pain and often does not require referral to rheumatology. With the anticipated workforce shortage of rheumatologists, referral trends to rheumatology for osteoarthritis need to be further evaluated. We will be conducting online surveys with UNC healthcare providers to gauge their understanding and comfort in diagnosing and managing patients with hand osteoarthritis. This will include short hand osteoarthritis video recordings covering various aspects including diagnosis, differential diagnosis, management, prognosis and appropriate referral procedures to rheumatology. This data will provide us information about comfort level in diagnosis, management and understand referral patterns from primary care providers.

Mentorship-based Theater Arts Support of Positive Youth Development across STEAM

To use a human centered design process to partner with community co-designers to understand how mentorship within a developmentally positive environment supports the mediators of reflection, belonging, and meaning-making to increase neurodiverse students' self-advocacy, self-perception, self-purpose, and ultimately in service of promoting academic performance, thriving and well-being. The purpose of our project is to explore how the components of metacognition play a unique part in shaping the psychological and social landscape of young individuals with learning differences. Our study will examine how the effective application of these assets can transcend theatre arts through STEAM environments to support diverse learners with continuity throughout their learning experience.

Work Supports Study

The purpose of this research study is to learn more about how workers in low-wage jobs get support at work, especially when they have pain. Some workers with pain may qualify for work accommodations-changes to their job or schedule that help them keep working. But not everyone who qualifies actually gets these changes, and we don't always know why. This study looks at things that might affect whether someone gets a work accommodation. These include personal factors like knowing your rights or being afraid of being treated differently, as well as job-related factors like how demanding the job is or how supportive a supervisor is.
