Behavior, Voice, and Sex Hormones Study
Hormones are molecules that deliver signals throughout the body. They influence behavior, sleep, hunger, stress, and virtually all other aspects of life. This study seeks to better understand several of these functions, specifically how hormones affect specific aspects of human behavior and psychology, as well as speech production. Following an initial lab visit, subjects will participate in the remainder of the study (~5 weeks) at home via the internet. On a daily basis, they will collect urine samples for hormone analysis, saliva samples for analysis of oral micro-organisms, and will submit voice samples for analysis of speech (e.g. measuring voice pitch and loudness). They will then complete an online survey designed to collect information about their behavior, and attitudes over the previous 24 hours. Subjects receive compensation for their participation.

A Prospective, Multicenter, Randomized, Pivotal Study of the May Health System in Transvaginal Ablation of Ovarian Tissue Under Ultrasound Guidance in Women with Infertility Due to Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
This is a randomized trial whereby a study device will be used to remove tissue from the ovary via a transvaginal ultrasound procedure in order to promote/restore ovulation in women with infertility due to PCOS. Weekly serum blood draws will also be obtained to determine ovulation rates during the first 12 weeks of study enrollment. Those randomized to the control arm will have the option of crossing over to the device arm after 3 months.
Preliminary visit to assess eligibility followed by randomization into the Device or Control Arm. Device Arm requires May Health procedure (approximately 1 hour long, similar to ovarian drilling) followed by 12 weekly blood tests and 6 follow up clinic visits and follow up calls for up to 36 months after the procedur4e. Control Arm requires 12 weekly blood tests and the option to cross-over to the device arm after 3 months. If no cross-over occurs, the control arm will have one follow up visit at 3 months and can then exit the study. Both arms will complete questionnaires and log menstruation dates in an e-diary.

The study will test GS-1427 for treatment of ulcerative colitis (UC). Adults diagnosed with UC can participate if otherwise eligible.The study has two parts; the first part lasts 12 weeks. Participants will be randomly assigned to either a treatment or a placebo arm. At 12-week evaluation the participants can be further assigned to an active treatment lasting 40 weeks. The study procedures include blood tests, endoscopy with biopsies, vitals, and physical exam, EKG testing, providing urine and stool samples, and completion of symptom-related diary questionnaires.
Participants will be required to sign the informed consent and show that they understand the study requirements. They will be required to complete in-person clinic visits. During the visits, the participants will have their vitals checked, and we will ask them about any problems they may have or adverse events. During the screening periods, participants undergo endoscopy with biopsies and provide stool and urine samples. Blood draws will also be done, and we will teach them to complete the questionnaires about the disease symptoms. If eligible for the study, screened subjects will be randomized for either one of four groups: three-drug treatment doses or a placebo treatment (blinded). They will attend clinic visits every four weeks. The endoscopy evaluation will be done at screening, week 12, week 52, and week 76 or at the end of the study. After week 12, participants will either continue to receive the drug treatment or, if they complete the placebo group, they will be randomized to one of the drug doses.

Understanding the effect of drivers’ profile information on riders’ feedback in ride-sharing context
This study aims to understand ways to affect how riders perceive and provide feedback to drivers through technology intervention. Particularly, we investigate how presenting drivers’ personal profile under different trip conditions may lead to differences in the ways riders may provide feedback. We hypothesize that riders will provide positive feedback when provided drivers’ personal information when the trip goes well, and that riders will provide less negative feedback when provided drivers’ personal information when the trip goes bad due to uncontrollable reasons.
