Goal #1: Advance clinical and translational science

FastTraCS is a passionate group of biomedical engineers who support University of North Carolina (UNC) Health physicians, nurses, and staff by identifying needs and problems in clinical settings and creating innovative, technological solutions.&nbsp;When Erin Carey, M.D., M.S.C.R., first joined UNC as a gynecological surgery fellow more than 10 years ago, she found that many of her patients suffered from some form of chronic pain. But she also quickly learned that the field of pain medicine doesn't always have good answers when it comes to gynecologic pain.&nbsp;"One mentor told me it's the Bermuda Triangle," Dr. Carey says.&nbsp;Dr. Carey, now the director of the Minimally Invasive Gynecologic Surgery Division at UNC, has spent a good chunk of her career trying to fill that clinical gap—including working on a project with FastTraCS, the biomedical engineering and commercialization team at NC TraCS, to develop a new physical therapy device for patients with pelvic floor muscle pain. The device, still in development, could one day enable patients to alleviate chronic muscle pain through physical therapy from the comfort of their own home...&nbsp;Read the full article <a href="https://tracs.unc.edu/index.php/news-articles/2192-new-fasttracs-co-executive-director-wants-to-help-unc-clinicians-turn-ideas-into-solutions" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">here</a>.&nbsp;

Goal #3: Address health disparities 

A new study, led by doctors at the Mayo Clinic, surveyed Black and brown youth in the Rochester area about race and their experiences seeking health care. Their answers could help make medical settings more inclusive.&nbsp;When Emily McTate, a pediatric psychologist at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, takes her 1-year-old son to the doctor, she puts on the badge that identifies her as Dr. Emily McTate.&nbsp;Dr. Ashaunta Anderson, an assistant professor of pediatrics at the University of Southern California, does the same thing when her kids, who have sickle cell disease, need to get their symptoms checked out. She also calls the emergency department ahead of time to give them a heads up that she—an attending doctor — will be bringing in the kids...&nbsp;Read the full article <a href="https://sahanjournal.com/health/racism-healthcare-minnesota-mayo-clinic-pediatrics/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">here</a>.
