CLIMB Scholars		Graduate Program	Research Interests
	Shannon Allen	IGP	I am interested in studying the seminal transmission of HIV from men to women.
	Jorge Cantu	NUIN	I am interested in studying damage to the central nervous system and inflammation. I would also like to get more experience with in vivo transgenic models and microscopy.
	Jeremy Eagles	NUIN	My area of interest is motor function and control, especially in regards to injury rehabilitation and in the treatment of neuromuscular diseases such as Parkinson's and ALS.
	Yomayra Guzman	NUIN	As a researcher I am interested in studying the neuropharmacological basis of substance abuse and affective disorders. In particular I would like to focus on how neurochemical interactions contribute to the modulation of brain circuitry and behavior.
	Guadalupe Navarro	IGP	Diabetes is a main concern in my life, and I will concentrate my research in the genetics of glucose metabolism and insulin resistance
	Eric Nickel	BME	I would like to continue pursuing studies investigating how motion changes under non-ideal conditions, focusing on areas which would be directly applicable to prosthesis design.
	Stacy Ochoa	IBiS	I would like to investigate the link between development and cancer research - specifically what factors in development control and allow cancers to spread and metastasize.
	Mario Shields	IGP	I am interested in investigating the molecular signaling events leading to the development and progression of metastatic cancers.
