We are aware of this issue and are working towards resolving it as quickly as possible.

There is currently an issue preventing formatted text to appear properly. If you use the formatting options when editing your Biography, Teaching & Research interests they will not show up as expected on your profile page:

We are aware of this issue more information will be forthcoming.

If all items entered in Work History have an end date, your profile will still show the entry with the most recent end date even if it is in the past.
