Dr. Stetson Thacker, a Clinical Genomics Curator at GenomOncology and the Social Media Manager for the journal Human Molecular Genetics, returns to the podcast to discuss how scientists communicate outside of publications and conferences. Beyond his expertise in reading primary literature, Stetson has a fantastic understanding of how to actively engage in scientific communication, hence why we wanted to chat with him about this topic. In this conversation, we start off by talking about what he does for Go and as HMG’s Social Media Manager. We then move onto discussing several platforms in which researchers communicate, including Twitter, Substack, Preprint Servers like BioRxiv, and ResearchGate. Finally, we reflect on the Open Science Movement, as well as how we hope to see research communication adapt and improve in the next decade.
