Medical Residents Learning Weight Management Counseling Skills
open to eligible people ages 18 years and up

The main questions it aims to answer are: - How affective is the MRWeight curriculum at increasing medical residents weight management counseling (WMC) skills. - Evaluate residents' adoption of WMC skills in encounters with their patients - what would be the best way to get residents to adopt the WMC skills Residents in the comparison group will receive a course on obesity and weight management. The residents in the intervention group will have to attend 2 informational sessions and will receive 6 email modules on WMC. Both groups will also take part in 3 assessments over the course of 18 months to see which group has better WMC skills.

Goals for Reaching Optimal Wellness: GROWell
“We're looking for healthy pregnant people to participate in a mobile health program”
Sorry, in progress, not accepting new patients
Despite the negative consequences to maternal-child health from women gaining too much weight during pregnancy, up to 62% of overweight and obese women gain more pregnancy weight than is recommended. This project will establish the efficacy of Goals for Reaching Optimal Wellness (GROWell), an mHealth tool for achieving appropriate pregnancy weight gain and promoting postpartum weight loss among women who enter pregnancy overweight or obese. GROWell will fill a gap in research and clinical care by providing a validated, standalone mHealth tool for weight control during pregnancy and postpartum, which is a currently lacking resource.
