Dear Readers,

Yes, today’s Health section is a little different. We have a new look, and we’ve made some changes to our regular features and added a new column.

Inside, you’ll find a new semimonthly column about health care and the Internet. Called “Your Health Online,” this feature will help you locate health sites on the Web, and tell you which ones are most interesting, useful and reliable. It is written by Marla Bolotsky, managing editor of online services for the Kaiser Family Foundation. One of our regular features, Journalese, by Times medical writer Thomas Maugh II, has been renamed Capsules, and will provide summaries of the latest studies from medical journals and other resources. We’re also making some changes to the How I Did It column, which are described on Page S4. We hope you’ll like the changes.

David Olmos is

the Health editor
