JBI's practical research dissemination guides are freely available for download and are developed for authors who want their research to reach audiences beyond academia to amplify their research impact. https://jbi.global/research-dissemination-resources #EBHC #SciComm

The Cochrane Collaboration, The Campbell Collaboration, JBI & Collaboration for Environmental Evidence (CEE) have released a position statement on the use of #AI in #EvidenceSynthesis, marking a unified global approach to managing AI's integration into #EBP research. https://ow.ly/1Fzg50Xqkkb#AI#EvidenceSynthesis#EBP#EBHC

Really looking forward to #JBIKochi and delivering a workshop on Inclusive #SciComm of #EBHC using Gen-AI. Co-facilitators are @biancapilla.bsky.social of @jbiebhc.bsky.social and our friends at the @campbellreviews.bsky.social and eBASE Africa.

MEXA shares an adaptable academic poster template that makes scientific posters clearer, more accessible, and more effective. Downloadable at: docs.neuromatch.io/p/g0uskpKuJp... #SciComm

Heather McCulloch from JBI invites us to consider the role of #CitizenScience in fostering collaborative knowledge communication, exploring how individuals can contribute to shared knowledge creation for more inclusive & equitable #EBHC policy & practice. https://ow.ly/WINo50WOUn6#CitizenScience#EBHC#WorldEBHCDay

Read #WorldEBHCDay blog by Heather McCulloch, Global Comms Coordinator at JBI, which tells the story of a toxic bloom in South Australia that is devastating marine life & bringing harm to human health. But with it comes a story of hope. https://ow.ly/e41250XcSkL#WorldEBHCDay#SciComm #OceanChat #CitizenScience

New article in The Lancet is a good read for #SciComm peeps.

Twitter isn't dead, but it is on life-support. It has swapped tweets for beeps in social media's ICU, tapping out SOS in morse code. #AcademicSky

How do we improve citizen science? I'm presenting at the Australian Citizen Science Association conference about how we co-created 10 recommendations with researchers and the public. You can read our discussion paper pre-print here: doi.org/10.1101/2025.08.13.670232 #CitSciOz25

So excited about the #SciComm workshop I'm co-facilitating with @biancapilla.bsky.social and colleagues from Campbell South Asia & eBASE Africa at the JBI colloquium in Kochi, India. Registrations for #JBIKochi close 17 October: jbi.global/jbi-colloquium #EvidenceSynthesis #HealthEquity

Capitalization affects how people read hashtags or how people hear them on screen readers. Use #camelCase or #PascalCase in hashtags instead of lowercase. You could have #DoctorWhoRewatch ("Doctor Who Rewatch") or #doctorwhorewatch ("doctor whore watch.")

To mark #MentalHealth Awareness month, we share a story of hope that comes out of the #HAB devastating #MarineLife in Australia. “Communities became the storytellers, scientists, and sentinels, sharing what they saw and what they knew." Read #WorldEBHCDay blog at: worldebhcday.org/blog/2025/re...

Talk about knowing your audience

"A video abstract is like a movie trailer; it introduces a wide audience to a research paper. As with a movie trailer, a video abstract should be short, engaging & easy to understand ... [It] aims to pique interest & direct viewers to the published article." jbi.global/sites/defaul... #SciComm

English dominates scientific publishing, which can limit access to knowledge for #EBHC for clinicians, policymakers, and communities who speak languages other than English (LOTE). www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Gzt...

You don't necessarily want to use the exact same alt text each time a specific image is used. Alt text must consider the context of the image and why it's being included on a site, post, article, etc. In other words, alt text depends on where you're including the image and why.

If you have a hashtag with multiple words, write the hashtag in #PascalCase or #camelCase to help users of screen readers. That helps the screen reader to read out the words out individually, rather than trying to read them in one long word.

In hashtags, it helps if each new word starts with a capital letter. Otherwise, sighted users could see a string of letters and not immediately know where one word ends and a new word begins. Capitalized words also help screen readers properly read out the hashtag.

The trend is still in Bluesky's favour. X is still larger but very regularly Bluesky easily eclipses it in terms of research being shared. Linda Yaccarino claimed X had 600m users in April. Bluesky has 36m accounts created in total.
