After several months of work, we went live for the first time today. I want to give a shout out to Nature Publishing Group’s technical team in London and New York, who worked wonders in building this site and working out bugs.

Please bear with us though. This is a beta site, so it’s not perfect and we’re still working out the kinks. Do let us know of any problems you see and give us suggestions for improvements, new features, etc. Email them to nnbfeedback at boston.nature.com. We will be rolling out new features over the coming months so please keep visiting us.

With this blog, my goal is to tell you about science and research news, both local and beyond, that we don’t get a chance to cover ourselves in our News section. I’ll also throw in any neat tidbits of info I come across. And I’ll be asking for feedback on story ideas I might be thinking about. I hope that you’ll jump in with your comments and ideas on my and other blogs on NNB.
