“I finally invented something that works!”

Apr 6, 2024 | tjuthompson.com | Tim Thompson

It’s been a funny old month. With only a few weeks left at Teesside before I leave and start my exciting new job at Maynooth University, it quickly became time to start thinking about how I was going to shift my research over to Ireland. The thing about being in one place for so long, is that you amass quite a lot of stuff. But it’s not just me who is leaving. Dr Rhys Williams, another bony person, is also moving on.

World in Motion

Feb 4, 2024 | tjuthompson.com | Tim Thompson

You may have seen that last week we announced our partnership work with Inter Miami CF. I’m really excited about it, and not just because I have now shaken a hand that has shaken the hand of Messi. And there’s a whole stack of research around secondary DNA transfer, so basically I’ve shaken the hand of Messi. It’s science. My feeling is that any partnership that a university invests its time and resources in (remember this is all public money) should benefit both sides.

ICON Week 2023: Raising Awareness of infant crying and how to cope

Sep 24, 2023 | cheshireccg.nhs.uk | Tim Thompson

“Babies cry, you can cope!” is the message from NHS, local authorities, and healthcare organisations across Cheshire and Merseyside who have come together this September to promote lifesaving messages to parents. Research shows that some parents and caregivers can lose control when a baby’s crying becomes too much. Some go on to shake a baby with devastating consequences.
