Profile building, research sharing and data proliferation using social media tools tper

46 views

Published on

Many of us nowadays invest significant amounts of time in sharing our activities and opinions with friends and family via social networking tools such as Facebook, Twitter or other related websites. However, despite the availability of many platforms for scientists to connect and share with their peers in the scientific community the majority do not make use of these tools, despite their promise and potential impact and influence on our careers. We are already being indexed and exposed on the internet via our publications, presentations and data and new “AltMetric scores” are being assigned to scientific publications as measures of popularity and, supposedly, of impact. We now have even more ways to contribute to science, to annotate and curate data, to “publish” in new ways, and many of these activities are as part of a growing crowdsourcing network. The stable of web-based platforms that can be used continues to expand but with only so much time available to share publications, presentations, data and activities how does a scientist shortcut their way to understanding what is available and the benefits of use. Participating online, whether it be simply for career advancement or for wider exposure of your research, there are now a series of web applications that can provide a great opportunity to develop a scientific profile within the community. This presentation will provide an overview of what is available and the potential benefits of investing a small amount of time in developing an online profile especially as an increasing number of potential employers and collaborators utilize the web to research scientists. This abstract does not reflect U.S. EPA policy.

  6. 6. Office of Research and Development Who markets your work??? If not you, then who? •“It's not the job of researchers to become experts in public relations — that's why universities have press offices, says Matt Shipman, research communications lead at North Carolina State University in Raleigh. But he recommends scientists toot their own horns as well. ” • http://www.nature.com/news/kudos-promises-to-help-scientists-promote-their-papers-to-new-audiences-1.20346
  7. 7. Office of Research and Development My Hopes for Today • Encourage you in the “era of participation” • Provide an overview of some tools available • Share some stories, statistics and strategies • Encourage you to “share for the sake of community/science as well as for yourself” • OUTCOMES • You will claim an ORCiD • You will invest ~2 hours per month on your profile • You have a bigger “Impact” online….

  9. 9. Office of Research and Development What’s the value of ORCID? • ORCIDs are now expected for many publications • Single click through to your ORCID page – how rich is your ORCID biography??? See https://orcid.org/0000-0002-2668-4821

  12. 12. Office of Research and Development Use ORCID on all products • Use your ORCID on everything you produce that will be indexed: –Presentations –Posters –Your profiles
  13. 13. Office of Research and Development Google will index all of your works…even if ORCID doesn’t
  14. 14. Office of Research and Development Think about it… • 100s if not 1000s of hours of research behind a paper. How much work is the PUBLISHER going to do to make sure people find out about your article?? How do you find out about an article??? • Shouldn’t YOU and your CO-AUTHORS invest some time in getting it out to the network??? • A presentation given to a small room of people has a lifetime of “20-30 mins”. A presentation shared online for all to see lives a lot longer. An article shared in the network has a much wider audience.

  69. 69. Office of Research and Development 68 What I said… http://www.nature.com/news/kudos-promises-to-help-scientists-promote-their-papers-to-new-audiences-1.20346 …choose two or three social-media platforms, invest the time to get them set up, and then spend perhaps two hours a month keeping them current. If nothing else, he says, build a LinkedIn profile as an online CV, claim and update an ORCID ID, and log peer-review activities on Publons.com. …a research paper is itself the end product of an extraordinary investment of time and energy. It takes thousands of hours of research, data analysis, writing and peer review, he says. “Shouldn't you put at least 10 to 20 hours of work into making sure that you can get the message out to relevant people?”
