Talking to the “real world”: Communicating Science to General AudiencesKara Gavin
Kara Gavin is a public relations representative at Michigan Medicine who communicates science to general audiences. She trains researchers on how to effectively communicate their work to non-experts and helps disseminate research findings. Most people have limited scientific literacy and understanding of health topics. Communicating science is important so research reaches those who fund and are impacted by it, and so the non-expert public can understand advances in medicine and science.
1) Kara Gavin works in communications at Michigan Medicine to publicize research findings to news media and the public using various channels including social media.
2) It is important for research institutions to communicate their work to taxpayers, policymakers, and the general public who are interested but may not understand technical scientific concepts.
3) Surveys have shown the public often has different views than scientists on issues like GMOs and vaccines, showing the need for more effective science communication to improve public understanding.

Researchers, Reporters and Everything in Between Kara Gavin
This document provides guidance to researchers on communicating their work to the public through various channels. It discusses the role of communication staff in helping researchers extend the reach of their work. Tips are provided on interacting with media, speaking to non-expert audiences, and creating an online presence to establish a personal brand. The goal is to help researchers engage with those who can apply their expertise, while navigating ethical and legal considerations around media interactions.
This document discusses some of the ethical considerations social workers should take into account regarding social media. It notes that while social media provides benefits like free communication and networking, it also challenges traditional notions of confidentiality and dual relationships. Clinicians need to avoid venting about clients online or sharing confidential details that could identify clients. Social media also makes it difficult to prevent clients and clinicians from finding personal information about each other online. The document questions how ethics may need to evolve as social media becomes more integrated and asks social workers to consider their own social media use and boundaries.

Communicating Research to the Real World through News Media and MoreKara Gavin
A presentation about interacting with news media, institutional communicators and general audiences directly, created for the CHOP Fellows at the University of Michigan, October, 2020
This document discusses the rise of social media and its implications for medicine. It defines social media as globally accessible media that allows anyone to easily create and share content. The document outlines the various types of social media and reasons why medical professionals may want to participate, including for education, research, patient care, and their careers. It acknowledges barriers like time, reputation risks, and liability but argues that social media is changing relationships in healthcare whether liked or not. The key is learning to practice social media like an art, focusing on how information is shared rather than just what is known.
Social media can be useful tools for scientists in three main areas:
1) Networking to maintain and make new contacts, obtain and share information about research and opportunities.
2) Science communication to explain research to colleagues, get feedback, and broaden understanding.
3) Public outreach to increase visibility, educate and inspire, and demonstrate science's relevance. Maintaining an online presence through sites like Twitter, Facebook, and ResearchGate can help with networking, communication and outreach.
This document provides an overview of social media for academics who may be sceptical about using it. It addresses common concerns such as not understanding social media, not agreeing with it, and not liking it. It discusses how academics can use social media for networking, publishing, quality assessment, funding, pedagogy, conferences, and impact. While social media is not for everyone, the document outlines reasons why academics may want an online presence and tips for using social media strategically while managing risks. It provides examples of social media platforms and how they could be used, as well as next steps for developing an online identity and digital strategy.
This document summarizes a presentation about developing effective social media strategies. It discusses identifying goals and target audiences, choosing appropriate platforms like Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn and YouTube, and measuring success. Tips include getting to know target audiences, using hashtags and visual content, collaborating with others, and continually learning and improving strategies. Resources are provided for exploring social media opportunities.

THE SPECIAL SENCES- Unlocking the Wonders of the Special Senses: Sight, Sound...Nursing Mastery
Title: Unlocking the Wonders of the Special Senses: Sight, Sound, Smell, Taste, and Balance
Introduction:
Welcome to our captivating SlideShare presentation on the Special Senses, where we delve into the extraordinary capabilities that allow us to perceive and interact with the world around us. Join us on a sensory journey as we explore the intricate structures and functions of sight, sound, smell, taste, and balance.
The special senses are our primary means of experiencing and interpreting the environment, each sense providing unique and vital information that shapes our perceptions and responses. These senses are facilitated by highly specialized organs and complex neural pathways, enabling us to see a vibrant sunset, hear a symphony, savor a delicious meal, detect a fragrant flower, and maintain our equilibrium.
In this presentation, we will:
Visual System (Sight): Dive into the anatomy and physiology of the eye, exploring how light is converted into electrical signals and processed by the brain to create the images we see. Understand common vision disorders and the mechanisms behind corrective measures like glasses and contact lenses.
Auditory System (Hearing): Examine the structures of the ear and the process of sound wave transduction, from the outer ear to the cochlea and auditory nerve. Learn about hearing loss, auditory processing, and the advances in hearing aid technology.
Olfactory System (Smell): Discover the olfactory receptors and pathways that enable the detection of thousands of different odors. Explore the connection between smell and memory and the impact of olfactory disorders on quality of life.
Gustatory System (Taste): Uncover the taste buds and the five basic tastes – sweet, salty, sour, bitter, and umami. Delve into the interplay between taste and smell and the factors influencing our food preferences and eating habits.
Vestibular System (Balance): Investigate the inner ear structures responsible for balance and spatial orientation. Understand how the vestibular system helps maintain posture and coordination, and explore common vestibular disorders and their effects.
Through engaging visuals, interactive diagrams, and insightful explanations, we aim to illuminate the complexities of the special senses and their profound impact on our daily lives. Whether you're a student, educator, or simply curious about how we perceive the world, this presentation will provide valuable insights into the remarkable capabilities of the human sensory system.
Join us as we unlock the wonders of the special senses and gain a deeper appreciation for the intricate mechanisms that allow us to experience the richness of our environment.
Digital Health in India_Health Informatics Trained Manpower _DrDevTaneja_15.0...DrDevTaneja1
Digital India will need a big trained army of Health Informatics educated & trained manpower in India.
Presently, generalist IT manpower does most of the work in the healthcare industry in India. Academic Health Informatics education is not readily available at school & health university level or IT education institutions in India.
We look into the evolution of health informatics and its applications in the healthcare industry.
HIMMS TIGER resources are available to assist Health Informatics education.
Indian Health universities, IT Education institutions, and the healthcare industry must proactively collaborate to start health informatics courses on a big scale. An advocacy push from various stakeholders is also needed for this goal.
Health informatics has huge employment potential and provides a big business opportunity for the healthcare industry. A big pool of trained health informatics manpower can lead to product & service innovations on a global scale in India.
