Tim Nicholson-Shaw, Ph.D.

Finally got around to taking our engagement photos ~6 months after our mini-pandemic wedding. Thank you to @letsfrolic for making our lab photoshoot dreams come true

My first first-author paper is officially out! If you like neuron development, the cytoskeleton, and beautiful microscope images this one's for you!

In my way to the #RNA22! Who is coming too? 😍 @RNASociety @jrRNAscientists

The large bulk of my graduate work finally put together and up as a pre-print! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Thank you @Pasquinelli_Lab for a fun collaboration to identify RNAs bound by nuclear and cytoplasmic poly(A)-tail binding proteins. Features RiboSTAMP from our lab to measure differences in ribosome interaction frequencies between PABPC and PABPN. academic.oup.com/nar/advance-ar…

@LisaMcdonnell @meganbarkerase @funnyfishes @cleander @justinrmeyer @clairemeaders I'm not amazing at R, so hopefully the real R people won't make too much fun of me. I put together some code using Biostrings here: timnicholsonshaw.github.io/BIMM143_SPR22/…

@meganbarkerase @funnyfishes @cleander @TNicholsonShaw @justinrmeyer @clairemeaders do you have any insight on this, or an R colleague you could share with?

@LEO19539 They'll have to write it in whipped cream on top of a mediocre tart.

Enjoy them while they mark "undefended" on the docs.

Turns out it's a "dissertation" and not a "dessertation." I don't know what my committee is going to do with these treacle tarts.

Day 459 in the Mummy's Curse Adventure Escape Room. I've gone far beyond the 1hr time limit. Still not sure what to do with this ankh. An employee probably should have let me out by now. What happened last March?
