This study tests a website designed to help thyroid cancer patients manage symptoms after radioactive iodine (RAI) treatment. About 88 adults who had RAI in the last three years will use either the new website or a standard one for four weeks. Researchers will check if the tool i…

This study tests whether a special decision aid website helps people with intermediate-risk thyroid cancer make informed choices about radioactive iodine (RAI) treatment. About 408 participants will be randomly assigned to use either the decision aid or a standard information web…

This study aims to see if offering combined breast and colon cancer screening navigation, along with genetic risk assessment, helps more Black and Hispanic women aged 45-74 get screened. Participants will be assigned to either bundled multi-cancer navigation or single-cancer navi…

This study tests whether a home-based computer training program can improve vision in people who have lost part of their visual field due to stroke, traumatic brain injury, or brain tumor. Researchers will use brain scans to understand how the brain changes with training. The stu…
