The University of Utah Office of Sponsored Projects Division has been awarded a 5-year, $167,455 K23 grant (CFDA 93.865 - Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research) from the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development. The grant supports a research training program for Dr. Kristina Suorsa-Johnson, a pediatric psychologist, to develop and pilot-test a set of decision aids for adolescents and young adults with differences of sex development (DSD) to facilitate shared decision-making around urogenital/gonadal surgical procedures. The project aims to identify informational needs, create evidence-based decision aids, and assess their feasibility in this underserved patient population. This innovative work seeks to improve patient engagement and outcomes in this critical area of sexual and gender minority health.
