Comparing Game Facilitated Interactivity to Genetic Counseling for Prenatal Screening Education
Recruiting
Advancements in prenatal genetic screening have significantly improved the identification of chromosomal abnormalities and heritable conditions during pregnancy, yet current standards for patient education in this domain are largely ineffective. The most effective approach to education about prenatal screening is one-on-one genetic counseling, but due to the limited number of counselors this is not feasible, especially in rural and frontier areas. The investigators will address this national pro... Read More

Monitoring HER2+ Breast Cancer Neoadjuvant Treatment With Advanced PET/MRI
Recruiting
The purpose of the study is to see if using an investigational drug called [18F]FMISO with PET/MRI imaging can help monitor and predict the effect of trastuzumab (Herceptin) on chemotherapy in patients diagnosed with advanced HER2 positive breast cancer. This study is for imaging purposes only and is not a treatment study. The results of this study will not change a patient's clinical treatment plan but it may help physicians and researchers better understand how best to treat patients with brea... Read More

Recruitment and Engagement in Care to Impact Practice Enhancement (RECIPE) for Sickle Cell Disease
Recruiting
The goal of this observational study is to help us understand more about the best ways to help individuals living with Sickle Cell Disease (SCD) get the best care. The main question it aims to answer is: How to find individuals unaffiliated from SCD specialist care use three distinct pathways? Once unaffiliated individuals are found using the pathways, Investigators will employ linkage coordinators (trained staff) to engage these patients in care. Participants will be asked to fill out an assess... Read More
