US Government Climate Change Website Credibility

Climate change is one of the biggest problems that humanity has faced in its history. Almost everybody has access to the internet in some form in the US, and a significant amount of research (academic or not) is done by searching the web for articles or websites that claim expert knowledge of the topic of interest. In the case of climate change, many of the authoritative websites in the US are federal government funded, from varying US agencies. These agency websites, given the amount of resources they command and the reputation provided by being a part of the federal government, have an immense opportunity to inform the public with reputable information and influence public action on climate change. The goal of this research is to inspect how credible some of the US government climate change websites actually are.

Feasibility of Developing a NC Hispanic Cancer Database

Cancer is the leading cause of death in the Hispanic population in the U.S. Our study focuses on collecting information to build a cancer registry from a diverse Hispanic population to identify specific cultural and demographic details that will allow us to determine which attribute carries a higher risk of a poor outcome. We will also be utilizing a set of questionnaires and surveys that evaluate the health and functionality of older adults thoroughly and efficiently. These surveys provide a wealth of prognostic data and have been shown to detect deficits even in younger patients. Although the information we hope to collect is of considerable value, we must first examine whether our approach to consenting patients and having them complete these questionnaires is feasible. We anticipate that the findings from our study will provide valuable insights on Hispanic adults with cancer as a unique and growing patient population in the U.S.
