Search Terms are now highlighted when searching in PubMed

In case you hadn't noticed, it is now possible to have your search terms highlighted in PubMed.

This is done through your My NCBI account. Simply log into your account, click on the My NCBI link, and then, on the blue sidebar, click on "Preferences."

In User Preferences, you'll see the option for turning on the highlighting and selecting the color you'd like the highlighting to be (yellow, green, plum, or aqua).

Simply select the color option you'd like and then say OK.

The highlighting will be active whenever you search PubMed through your My NCBI account.
