The purpose of this research is to explore the effects of participation in a pickleball community-based exercise program on function in people with Parkinson's disease (PwPD). Individuals will engage in an 8-week instructional pickleball exercise program designed specifically by Movement Disorder Specialists at the Medical University of South Carolina for PwPD. The pickleball training program involves warm-up exercises, stroke mechanics, fall safety and recovery technique training, effective movement pattern drills, game play strategies, and match play. We aim to quantify the motor function, balance, mobility, and quality of life outcomes through clinical assessments and questionnaires before and after participation in the Pick it Up Pickleball training program. This research will establish an evidence base for pickleball as a therapeutic intervention, opening the door for additional accessible and engaging exercise options for the PD community.

The purpose of this study to help us understand if adding transcranial Direct Current
Stimulation (tDCS), a non-invasive brain stimulation technique, to Speech Therapy
improves language recovery in people with Broca's aphasia and is more effective than Speech Therapy alone.

This study gives people who were part of an earlier Avalyn research protocol with inhaled pirfenidone versus placebo an opportunity to convert to open label or active investigational drug treatment. The goal is to continue learning additional safety and efficacy information in patients over a longer period of treatment time. Pulmonary fibrosis is a disorder with a poor prognosis that is often far worse than many cancers with limited treatment options. While this medication has yet to be proven effective, the safety profile currently is acceptable and the risks versus benefits favor offering this opportunity to patients with informed consent.

This is a small, test study to see if mailing buprenorphine works for patients with opioid use disorder and a recent medical hospitalization. It tries to remove some of the existing barriers to make it easier to stay in treatment and make it easier for individuals to keep taking their medicine after discharge. The purpose of this research study is to determine if mailing buprenorphine is possible, acceptable, and look at the early results of how well it works.

This study aims to evaluate the remote delivery of self-regulation assessments in young children with autism and their parents. Parents will complete online surveys. Parents and children will complete two virtual visits. At the second visit, participants will wear a heart rate monitor while completing study tasks. This study will inform research on behavioral therapies for children with autism.

This study will enroll patients and collect blood samples from those who have a newly diagnosed cancer, are going to a procedure for a definitive diagnosis of cancer, or healthy control subjects. These samples that are being collected and banked will be used for future development of blood tests to detect lung cancer in future patients at the earliest stages.

Cancer caregivers in emerging and young adulthood (ages 18-35) are an underresearched and unsupported group of caregivers, and yet they are not uncommon. To address this critical support gap, the goal of this study is to develop and pilot test a caregiving support intervention specifically tailored for emerging and young adults caring for a parent with cancer. This phase of the study is intended to capture feedback on the intervention via focus groups with emerging and young adult caregivers of a parent with cancer.
