This study will look at the current health statuses of members of the Lumbee tribe. Health statuses of other tribes who have federal recognition will be put together in order to compare them to those of the Lumbee. This study hopes to see what exactly federal recognition could potentially do for the Lumbee tribe when it comes to health if they were to receive it.

Amputation is one of the major causes of disability. Sockets are the important prosthesis components and physical interface to integrate the prosthetic limbs mechanically with the amputee's residual limb to replace lost function. Objective monitoring of the inner socket environment (i.e. pressure, temperature, and humidity) and residual muscle activity during daily prosthesis use requires flexible, unobtrusive and multi-modal sensors that can be integrated into the socket structure without causing subject discomfort. The lack of such an inner-socket sensor technology has been a long-standing problem for evaluating the prosthesis socket, preventing the complications elicited by poor socket design and fit, and advancing the socket technologies. Therefore, advanced socket technologies are urgently needed and will be developed under this project to significantly reduce the number of clinic visits, lower the healthcare costs for amputees, and ultimately improve their quality of life.

Adapt a healthy eating and physical activity program for families with preschool-aged children who have Down syndrome

This project was designed to determine if a web based resource for families of Black toddlers with ASD is liked and considered useful in learning about available services and resources across North Carolina.

Because Black youth are dying by suicide at an alarming rate, this study addresses the interplay of how two dimensions of inequality impact suicide: 1. school-based mental health services and referrals; and 2. aggressive school disciplinary practices. Mental health symptoms in Black individuals may be "masked" as aggression and misinterpreted by school professionals as behavioral problems, reinforcing harsh disciplinary practices disproportionate in Black youth. Improved understanding of how these two dimensions influence suicide will inform upstream approaches to suicide prevention delivered in school settings and contribute to a sizeable gap in the literature in support of preventing Black youth from dying of suicide. We will collect a disparate set of data sets to describe the prevalence of these issues and conduct analyses that explore the relationship between disciplinary actions and mental health access with suicide. We will also interview school-based professional and administrators to understand their roles and understandings

The purpose of this study is to improve the technique of focused ultrasound surgery in treating essential tremors for adults whose tremors are not controlled by medication(s).

The purpose of this study is to understand how people view the motivation of other people's behavior.

The purpose of this randomized clinical trial is to determine whether an individual vs. family-based strategy for medically tailored meal deliver differs in improving diet quality, and if a dedicated driver vs. commercial shipping delivery strategy differs in reducing loneliness

This study aims to investigate the different timings in tasks that are designed to measure attention functions. By using various timings, we want to find out the optimal time and duration of the different aspects in this task.
