So to learn more about the "infodemic", we're joined by Samantha Yammine (Canada's favourite science communicator/neuroscientist/podcast fan) to chat about how compassion leads the way in the fight against disinformation, super secret blacklists, and why hot-takes & clout-chasing can screw things up for everyone. ————————————————————— * You can find Sam at @heysciencesam on Twitter [https://twitter.com/heysciencesam] * You can check out @science.sam on TikTok [https://www.tiktok.com/@science.sam] * Follow her on Instagram @sciencesam [https://instagram.com/sciencesam] * Going viral: how to boost the spread of coronavirus science on social media - Nature [https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-020-01356-y] ————————————————————— Stay In Touch: Use the hashtag #whynotadoc on Twitter & IG Follow us on Twitter: @whynotadoc [https://twitter.com/whynotadoc] @thermoflynamics [https://twitter.com/thermoflynamics/] @HanaAyoob [https://twitter.com/hanaayoob] @ozy_ismail [https://twitter.com/ozy_ismail] @newshound1337 [https://twitter.com/newshound1337] See acast.com/privacy [https://acast.com/privacy] for privacy and opt-out information.
