Welcome to the Surgical Outcomes Club Twitter Journal Club!
But why confine these discussions to your local environment, when you have the entire world and access to experts at your fingertips? Hence our interest in Twitter. Once a quarter, a Surgical Outcomes Club Board member will moderate a journal club along with a guest host (author of one of the articles), providing an opportunity for you to use social media to discuss the topic, explore collaborations, support, mentorship and promote evidence-based practice. The topic and related articles will be announced 2 weeks ahead of the Tweet Chats that will take place on the 4th Monday and Tuesday of that month at 5 pm Pacific/8 pm Eastern. These Tweet chats are open to the public, allow authors to discus their results with a diverse audience, and increase awareness of topics of importance in the world of Health Services Research. The ultimate goal is to advance science. Please join in on the conversation! Resources: Getting Started with Twitter
Dr. Heather Logge’s post is fantastic for those using Twitter for the first time: “Twitter 101: How to Set Up a Professional Twitter Account” http://alliesforhealth.blogspot.com/2012/09/twitter-101-for-surgeons.html
Another great resource comes from our friends at the International General Surgery Journal Club, where Andrew Wright has written a great post: “Guide for New Twitter Users” https://igsjc.wordpress.com/guide-for-new-twitter-users/ 2017 Journal Club Events:
