1️⃣ The concept of ‘research impact’ and social media.
We need experts on how research impact theory connects to social media practices. How do scholarship, public engagement, and policymaking interact online? @lseimpactblog.bsky.social

2️⃣ Social media & researcher identity. Which platforms work best for academics? What strategies are effective for building a professional online presence? We’d love case studies of scholars who’ve built strong academic brands online.

3️⃣ Increasing research visibility via social media. We want examples of scholars who’ve used social media to make real-world change. Have you seen creative or impactful social media strategies in academia? Let us know! @trondoskars.bsky.social

4️⃣ Customizing your information environment. How do academics manage their social media feeds to keep up with relevant research? If you’ve developed effective techniques to filter your feed or manage info flow, we’d love to hear from you!

5️⃣ Automation, AI, and social media. What role do tools like LLMs (large language models) and automation play in academic social media? We’re looking for stories of academics using AI tools like scheduling apps, chatbots, or recommendation algorithms in a social media context. @taekke.bsky.social

6️⃣ Navigating the dark side of social media. We need case studies and strategies on handling trolling, burnout, self-censorship, and more. We’re especially interested in experiences from scholars working in highly politicized or controversial fields.

Looks like a fantastic book.

The critical mass needed to achieve impact is often underappreciated.

It is also important for researchers to think beyond research outputs and social media is a great way to facilitate the translation of research outputs into outcomes and impact.

I hope so Scott, and we are really excited about it!
