User:Student Doctor J

My mini biography
I'm User:Student Doctor J, real name Travis Johnson. I’m a full time osteopathic medical student at Texas College of Osteopathic Medicine, class of 2018. For about the past decade, I’ve also worked for the University of Texas at Austin teaching general chemistry and biochemistry; lately my work revolves around content generation for courses. I did my undergraduate and graduate studies in biochemistry there as well. My graduate research was about RNA - specifically the Tetrahymena ribozyme - and it culminated in a paper with a quite long and rather boring title that was published in PNAS. Last, but not least, I’m part owner of a company that makes nutritional supplements.

Words that inspire me
It is well to give when asked, but it is better to give unasked, through understanding;

And to the open-handed the search for one who shall receive is joy greater than giving.

And is there aught you would withhold?

All you have shall some day be given;

Therefore give now, that the season of giving may be yours and not your inheritors'. Khalil Gibran
