Biophysics PhD candidate in the Woodson Lab @ Johns Hopkins | NIH F31 Fellow | Bridging the gap between MD simulations & experiments in the RNA (+Hfq) realm.
Baltimore, MD
Joined March 2011
I’m honored to have been awarded the NIH F31 Ruth L. Kirschstein National Research Service Award (NRSA) fellowship from @NIAIDTraining! So thankful to my awesome mentor @woodson_lab for all her support & guidance. Go RNA (and Hfq)! #WomenInSTEM #Gotthegrant 👩🔬🧬

I had a blast with these apple-solutely brilliant scientists on Saturday!
This bunch of RNA lovers knows how to unwind! Enjoying A-U-tumn and apple picking 🍎🍏

Congrats, Jorjethe and Yi-Lan! 👏👏
Our new paper is out in PNAS! We show that competition for binding to the Hfq matchmaker disfavors mismatched sRNA-mRNA combinations while allowing matched sRNA-mRNAs to form stable pairs. Kudos to Jorjethe Roca and Yi-Lan Chen for their fantastic work!

Excited to share our new #ribozyme paper in @NAR_Open! We used activity assays, high-throughput sequencing & all-atom MD to show that the evolution of the glmS ribozyme is constrained by a need to avoid non-native helix interfaces! #RNA @woodson_lab

Abstract. Like other functional RNAs, ribozymes encode a conserved catalytic center supported by peripheral domains that vary among ribozyme sub-families.

I’m late, but 🌈 happy #Pride2024 🌈 to all! I’m Elise (she/her/hers), a PhD student in the @woodson_lab at Johns Hopkins @JHU_Mol_Biophys. I study Hfq-RNA interactions + ribozyme folding. Non-science hobbies: tennis, hiking, watching Netflix/Hulu & exploring new places 😊😊

My first paper in the Woodson Lab (2nd author, not 1st, ha!) was accepted w/ minor revisions. No revisions at all for my MD results. It’s a good day 🎉🎉

This came in the mail yesterday!! Excited to delve much deeper into NMR theory, now that I’m a PhD candidate 😊🤓

Our story about structural switching in the fluoride riboswitch is out in @NAR_Open 👇👇 Check it out!
(1/3) Excited to share our newest publication!! Fun collaboration with the Chen and Severinov labs to investigate how the fluoride riboswitch rearranges a pseudoknot to form a terminator. See movie generated by @elisew00 and Alan Chen (@TheRNAInstitute) https://t.co/xrf8Zofh8Q
