Evangeline Motley maintains her research program in hypertension research and teaches and trains minority students at Meharry Medical College

L. Gabriel Navar began studying agriculture but, because of his interest in science, decided to study veterinary medicine. While in veterinary school, he became particularly interested in Physiology. This interest led him to graduate school where he received a Ph.D. and specialized in how the kidneys and blood vessels function and how their incorrect function may lead to high blood pressure. He is the Chair of the Department of Physiology at Tulane University Health Sciences Center

James Norton teaches physiology to medical students. He also does research on dinosaurs and is trying to reconstruct their breathing apparatus to determine whether they were warm-blooded, active predators like wolves or lions, or cold-blooded predators like alligators or monitor lizards
