To highlight "what's really happening" in Durham county, exploring the idea that a certain population's needs around support and access for birth are being obscured by the overall data or not being seen by "official" maternal health initiatives, as well as what community-driven solutions to these challenges look like.

This project studies how our ability to hear with two ears changes as we age or develop hearing loss.

When returning to work after giving birth, new mothers must navigate how to reengage with their work roles while simultaneously dealing with a host of physical, psychological, and lifestyle changes. Yet, research to date has yet to look beyond the formal organizational policies related to supporting mothers post-partum (e.g., maternity leave) and assess how coworkers at work engage in behaviors that can aid or hinder new mothers' transition back to work. The current study aims to understand the experiences of women returning to work after giving birth. In particular, we seek to explore how other coworkers support and engage with their post-partum transition, potentially becoming allies who advocate for those women during their transition back into work.

Our experimental aims are to 1) evaluate two methods for collecting dried blood spots (i.e., finger prick versus Tasso M20) and 2) examine correlations between psychological variables and pro-inflammatory markers. To achieve these, we will be implementing a course-based undergraduate research experience (CURE) and plan to assess its effectiveness in student success (e.g., academic performance, involvement in research, and retention in STEM).

This study seeks to qualitatively evaluate and understand UNC Family Medicine Center's transition to value-based care.

We are collecting cerebral spinal fluid (CSF) from Normal Pressure Hydrocephaly (NPH) patients to generate a biosample research repository. This repository will be used to research CSF biomarkers for Alzheimer's disease that may enhance our ability to detect and monitor Alzheimer's disease diagnoses and progression.

The primary objective for this registry is to prospectively study the natural history of IBD, the prevalence and incidence of comorbidities, and targeted adverse events, as well as the utilization patterns and the comparative effectiveness and comparative safety of approved IBD treatments.
