Why Pathologists Should Be Tweeting - a podcast by CAP

Twitter use by physicians, especially pathologists, continues to grow. Twitter provides an easy-to-use communications platform for rapid education, news, and networking that helps busy pathologists stay engaged and informed without taking up much time. Many pathologists see the benefits of joining Twitter but are unsure about how to get started.

In this CAPcast, Drs. Sara Jiang and Jerad Gardner discuss why pathologists should embrace Twitter and how this social media tool has benefited their careers. Drs. Jiang and Gardner will be leading a CAP 17 workshop on this topic, entitled: CAP Foundation Keitges Program on Medical Ethics: Get Tweeting: A Hands-On Interactive Twitter Primer for Pathologists on Monday, Oct 9.

And if you are already active on social media and want to further hone your skills, don’t miss Dr. Jiang and Dr. Gardner’s Roundtable Lunch Discussions at CAP 17. On Sunday, Oct. 8 at 12pm, Dr. Gardner will be leading, “Lessons From a Social Media Pro: Harnessing the Full Power of Twitter and Facebook for Career Development.” And then on Monday, Oct. 9 at 12pm, Dr. Jiang will be leading another lunchtime discussion entitled, “Twitter Beyond the Basics: Analytics, Journal Clubs, and Optimizing Your Efficiency.” Registration for all of these CAP17 events is now open online at http://www.thepathologistsmeeting.org or by clicking on the CAP17 link on http://www.cap.org.
