Blog

Hello, blog.yingqiu.me

AnnouncementWebsite

Welcome. This is the new, independent home of my writing — a blog of its own at blog.yingqiu.me, while the academic portfolio keeps living at yingqiu.me.

Why a separate site?

A portfolio is a shop window; a blog is a workshop. Keeping them apart keeps both focused.

  • The portfolio stays academic. Publications, experience, research — nothing else.
  • The blog is free-form. Research notes, reading summaries, and things I learn about drug development, in whatever length they need.
  • Each site deploys independently. Updating one never touches the other, and both are static files served from the same small server.

The plumbing

Both sites are built with the same stack — Next.js, statically exported, Markdown / MDX posts, bilingual English and Chinese. The blog generates its own RSS feed, and every push to main rebuilds and ships it automatically:

NEXT_PUBLIC_SITE_URL=https://blog.yingqiu.me npm run build
rsync -az --delete out/ deployer@yingqiu.me:/var/www/blog/

What comes next

  1. Write here — research notes, reading summaries, and lessons from the lab.
  2. Keep the portfolio clean and up to date.
  3. Polish the details as I go: typography, dark mode, and the RSS feed.

You can subscribe via RSS if you prefer feeds over bookmarks. Questions and feedback are welcome — the fastest way to reach me is through the portfolio contact page.
