Following my undergrad, I spent some time doing non-scientific pursuits, such as tree planting and travelling. However, science drew me back in, and I completed an MSc in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology at the University of Calgary. In my MSc, I investigated the genetic interactions underlying the regulation of centriole biogenesis in Maja Tarailo-Graovac&#8217;s lab. My MSc research piqued my interest in mechanistic cell biology which has brought me to the Bullock lab, where I began my PhD in October 2024. My current research, which is funded by the Gates Foundation, works to understand the function of RNA binding proteins in mRNA localisation.<\/p>\n<p>Email: knickel \u2018at\u2019 mrc-lmb.cam.ac.uk<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kyle Nickel, PhD student &nbsp; I grew up in Alberta, Canada, and completed my Bachelor of Science in Cell Biology at the University of Alberta in 2020.
