We are aiming for a 'smart casual' look on the website, so please SMILE in the picture and avoid suits and dress uniforms. We want a photo of you looking relaxed and happy (NOT your passport photo). A nice background such as a garden, your lab or office would be a plus. Traditional dress and wetsuits are ok! Adding a photo will increase your profile views.
