Why Twitter?
#Science really thrives on open discourse to share ideas, experimental results, methods, which is probably why so many academics use Twitter. But this form of #scicomm is key so that we can also extend those conversations to the public. https://www.labsexplorer.com/c/twitter-and-scientists-a-love-story_185
