County-Level Analysis of the Health Impact of Black Physicians in Georgia
Despite the longstanding underrepresentation of Black physicians in the U.S., greater representation of Black physicians in the physician workforce can positively impact health outcomes. In Georgia, racial and ethnic health inequities are prevalent, and physician workforce shortages are acute. This study aims to assess the impact of Black physician representation on three health outcomes: Years of Potential Life Lost (YPLL) before age 75 and hosp…
The NIH Research Centers in Minority Institutions (RCMI): National and Public Health Impact as Measured by Collaborative Scientific Excellence, Investigator Development, and Community Engagement
The RCMI-CC and RCMI Consortium collectively demonstrate national and public health impact, with externally validated quantifiable metrics and return on investment

Impact of Covid-19 on the Research Career Advancement of Health Equity Scholars from Diverse Backgrounds
The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly taxed scientific research and seems to have exacerbated existing inequities within the research field, particularly for early-stage investigators (ESIs). This study examines the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on traditionally underrepresented ESIs enrolled in an NIH-supported study evaluating the effectiveness of developmental networks, grant writing coaching, and mentoring on research career advancement.…
The Role of Mock Reviewing Sessions in the National Research Mentoring Network Strategic Empowerment Tailored for Health Equity Investigators: A Randomized Controlled Study
The National Research Mentoring Network (NRMN) Strategic Empowerment Tailored for Health Equity Investigators (SETH) study evaluates the value of adding Developmental Network to Coaching in the career advancement of diverse Early-Stage Investigators (ESIs). Focused NIH-formatted Mock Reviewing Sessions (MRS) prior to the submission of grants can significantly enhance the scientific merits of an ESI's grant application. We evaluated the most preva…

Randomized Controlled Study to Test the Effectiveness of Developmental Network Coaching in the Career Advancement of Diverse Early-Stage Investigators (ESIs): Implementation Challenges and Lessons Lea…
Introduction: Adding developmental networks (DN) to grant-writing coaching can significantly enhance ESIs' research careers. Herein, we present study design, ESIs' characteristics and encountered challenges/lessons learned and their resolutions when deploying/implementing (a) NCR algorithm(s), (b) recruitment/retention and (c) implementing DN intervention. Methods: Nested Cluster Randomization (NCR) design governs this study implementation. The s…
Variation in Reporting of the Race and Ethnicity of Covid-19 Cases and Deaths Across US States: April 12, 2020, and November 9, 2020
Despite growing evidence that COVID-19 is disproportionately affecting communities of color, state-reported racial/ethnic data are insufficient to measure the true impact. We found that between April 12, 2020, and November 9, 2020, the number of US states reporting COVID-19 confirmed cases by race and ethnicity increased from 25 to 50 and 15 to 46, respectively. However, the percentage of confirmed cases reported with missing race remained high a…
Religiosity After a Diagnosis of Cancer Among Older Adults
Aspects of religiosity are important to health and quality of life of cancer patients. This analysis examined changes in religiosity among community-dwelling cancer survivors. Previously diagnosed and newly diagnosed cancer survivors age 65+ were interviewed at baseline and four years later to understand how components of religiosity may change. Religiosity was assessed as organizational, non-organizational, and intrinsic using the Duke Religiosi…
Religiosity and Function Among Community-Dwelling Older Adult Survivors of Cancer
Aspects of religiosity/spirituality are important to health and quality of life of cancer patients. The three components of religiosity of the Duke Religiosity Scale: organizational (religious affiliation and attendance); non-organizational (prayer, meditation, and private study); and intrinsic religiosity (identification with a higher power and integration of spiritual belief into daily life) are used to determine whether religiosity was associa…
Assessing the Role of Spirituality in Coping Among African Americans Diagnosed with Cancer
Development and Validation of Measures of Religious Involvement and the Cancer Experience among African Americans
Research indicates that African Americans diagnosed with cancer tend to use religion in coping. However less is known about the specific role that religion plays in the coping process. Based on previous qualitative work, five instruments were developed to assess the role of religious involvement in cancer coping: God as helper, God as healer, Faith in healing, Control over cancer and New perspective. The instruments were administered to 100 Afric…
The Potential Role of Breast‐Feeding and Other Factors in Helping to Reduce Early Childhood Caries
Our results suggest measures that might reduce ECC risk. Medical providers must discuss oral health with new mothers and educate them on the important role they play in keeping their babies' teeth healthy
