Nichole Klatt's work continues to receive rave reviews.

Her research recently received a reference in the Science Daily News: www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2008/05/080522181527.htm. It was also published in the Journal of Clinical Investigation: www.jci.org/articles/view/33814.

Now, if only she can break into the elusive People Magazine.

Klatt just sent an update about two very cool things that have recently happened

1. She had her manuscript accepted for publication at the Journal of Clinical Investigation (www.jci.org)

and

2. She accepted a post doctoral post at the National Institutes of Health (www.nih.gov) starting early next year.

NIH is part of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services and combats all the major microscopic creepy-crawlies out to get humans.

Way to go Nichole!

And hats off to District 112 teachers for fostering a love of science in students!
