BIG Chicago: A Trial of Basic Income Guarantee for Young People Living With HIV

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare two interventions - Basic Income Guarantee (BIG) + Treatment as Usual and Treatment as Usual among individuals living with HIV who have experienced financial hardships. The main question it aims to answer is: Compared with the Treatment as Usual group, will participants in the BIG + Treatment as Usual group be more likely to improve care engagement and viral suppression? Participants on the study will be: * Randomly assigned (like the flip of a coin) to participate in either BIG + Treatment as Usual or Treatment as Usual. Participants will have an equal chance of being placed in either group. * Complete 9 surveys over a 36 month period. * Complete a release of information so electronic medical record data can be accessed for the 18 months prior to treatment engagement and for 36 months from program enrollment. * Participants in the Treatment as Usual group will not receive any intervention. * HIV viral load testing will be confirmed at 3 timepoints (baseline, 12 months, and 18 months). * Participants in the BIG + Treatment as Usual group will receive $500 monthly income for 18 months. * Participants in the BIG + Treatment as Usual group will complete 3 social network surveys to assess how receiving BIG impacts their social networks. * A subset of participants in the BIG + Treatment as Usual group (30 participants) will complete 5 individual interviews over the course of receiving BIG and the 18 months after.

NeuroFinance Human Stress Trial During Financial and Informational Volatility

The NeuroFinance Human Stress Trial (NFHST-2026-001) is a decentralized observational clinical study designed to evaluate how financial market volatility, economic uncertainty, digital media exposure, and information-driven stress environments affect human physiologic and behavioral health. Participants will undergo remote monitoring using wearable biosensors, cardiovascular telemetry devices, sleep tracking systems, heart rate variability monitoring, and behavioral analytics platforms. The study will use artificial intelligence and machine learning systems to analyze relationships between external financial and informational events and biologic stress responses, including autonomic nervous system activity, sleep disruption, cardiovascular strain, emotional resilience, and inflammatory signaling. The goal of the study is to develop predictive digital biomarkers and AI-assisted forecasting systems capable of identifying stress-related physiologic deterioration before clinical manifestation.

PediRISE Feasibility

The goal of this research study is to learn whether investigators can successfully give the PediRISE program to families-in other words, whether most families are interested in participating in a study about the PediRISE program, including a 50-50 chance of receiving standard usual care, and a 50-50 chance of receiving the PediRISE support program. The names of the study groups in this research study are: * PediRISE Program Group * Usual Care Group
