conferences are often registered with Symplur so analytics and
transcripts can be created. As with chats, remember to include
the designated hashtag. The general idea is to share the scientific
content with those who cannot attend, initiate or participate in
conversations about new data and clinical practice, and network
with other practitioners. To this end, high-quality tweets often
include pictures of slides, quotes from the speakers, summaries
of data presented, links to original manuscripts referenced during
talks, or thought-provoking questions. When sharing an important
learning point, good Twitter etiquette suggests crediting the
speaker(s) by including his or her Twitter handle when applicable.
Consider adding your Twitter handle to your conference name
badge to let others know you are on Twitter, and definitely make
time to meet members of your community who are attending the
conference in real life (ie, have a "Tweetup").
FINAL THOUGHTS
The use of social media in medicine and medical education
is quickly expanding. ASRA has seen a robust response to its

social media offerings, both at its annual meetings and during
the time between them. Twitter is a powerful learning tool that
allows engagement among peers and colleagues across wide
distances. This can enhance patient care, medical knowledge, and
mentorship. As the volume of new research and other information
relevant to health care continues to expand at an exponential rate,
we expect applications of social media platforms like Twitter in
medical education to grow. We hope ASRA members realize the
potential benefits and get engaged.
