My time at the Department of State has come to an end.

On September 1 I return to my former life, that of a postdoctoral fellow in the Department of Embryology at the Carnegie Institution for Science in Baltimore.

I’ll be taking the next two weeks off to move and relax and spend time with family.

It’s been a pleasure reading and responding to your comments and e-mails.

Check back here in September for more news about Science Planet.
