Finally, a new format for my blog

For the first time since starting this blog back in 2012, I have changed its format. Gone are the sky blue background and the ill-fitting columns that often overlapped if I posted something too large. Gone are the clunky Helvetica text and the photograph of Binney Street before the new lab buildings had been built. The new header photograph is a row of stately 19th century red-brick buildings that line Massachusetts Avenue in Boston's South End. While I'm still using Blogger as my blog platform -- it's part of the Google package and therefore very easy to use -- I hope this new format offers a more compelling way of interacting with my posts. I hope you enjoy, but as always, feel free to leave comments or send me a note about other changes you might like to see.
