    Hey #ScienceTwitter friends! I’m writing a short guide for scientists who want to join Twitter. While the “how” is important, I think the “why” is even more so and I’d love to include some quotes from you! In what ways do you benefit from being active on Twitter?

        Yes! I often have people say “why does it matter because only a small fraction of scientists are on twitter” to which I reply “that may be so, but a large fraction of journalists are on twitter!”

        If you are an ECR it amplifies your voice. I have made collaborations through twitter. I have obtained excellent lab management advice through twitter.

        What about the Very Fancy Paper? That also happened in part because of twitter.

        It’s a great way to hear about new papers and just news in the scientific community.

        It's also a really nice way to share papers through conferences - live tweeting during a conference makes it really easy to take notes. And everything is indexed via hashtags

        #SciComm will make you a better scientist: if you can't explain something simply, without resorting to jargon, you probably don't understand it as well as you think.

        Addition to this, explaining something within character count restraints makes you /simplify/, which also helps in ensuring understanding!

        Twitter makes it easier to interact with researchers and research throughout the process rather than just in the final, formal published output. It can be really good for building networks across countries as well as learning about research in your own institution or context

        Also, great for thinking outside of your area/context and a good place to ask questions.
