Science
BBSRC Research Fellow at the Centre for Bacterial Cell Biology, Newcastle University. My fellowship looks at ribosome inhibition by tRNA interference. I also carry on my work on the coupling of transcription and translation in bacteria, using structural biology to work out how the ribosome and RNA polymerase coordinate during gene expression.
Software
BenchCalc started because I got tired of the same bookmarked websites with their loading screens and ads. FeeDings! is an RSS reader. Influence was AI-powered interactive fiction. pathlaid is a game where you lay the path and outrun the chase. GameDings! is a growing collection of original games, out now on Android. All made by Feedings Ltd, a small UK company I founded.
