Realized there’s a lot of folks here I don’t know so introducing myself!
Hi! I’m a #PedsHemOnc doc in #NYC with a clinical & research focus on non-malignant hematology (especially blood clots) & MPNs in kids. I post about hematology, peds, volunteering at camp, med Ed, politics, baking, & whatever else pops into my head (you’ve been warned 🤣). Just about every Friday is #FunEarringFriday so I share pics of my funny earrings. Still figuring out this elephant space but so far so good! 😃
How to improve science discovery and productivity?
Not just about money (see graph below): funding fast, bets on talent/people, take risk, think big

If you're #newtomastodon and maybe a #twitterrefugee - please be patient. This is a fully volunteer led experience and these amazing people are swamped in a way they could never have expected a few weeks ago. This is a place of love, kindness and community. If you think it's all about you, you probably want TikTok. #twittermigration #twitterexodus
@soragnilab You are the best, Alice! 🧡✨
You can pin more than one toot to your profile!! That on top of the edit button.. isn’t this place glorious??
Welcome everyone who just joined over the past day 👋
People grumbling that #Mastodon is slow at the moment... You just turned up with 1 million people in a tiny, rural village and you're complaining there's a queue to get into the only tearoom, which is run by gay pensioners Babs & Maureen as a retirement hobby on Mons-Weds. Relax!

If you're just joining us via the #TwitterMigration, make sure to write an #introduction post letting people know who you are!
I boost just about every one that I see.
If you want to know how big the current #TwitterMigration is to Mastodon, look at this current chart.
I have never seen anything this massive.
Be kind, folks. Lots of bird app ppl are coming here and things are a bit slow.

What better way to inaugurate my #Mastodonscience tooting? Here's a brand new review on #Neutrophils, #Netosis, and #platelets by my good friends (not on mastodon) Ivan Zanoni and Valentina Poli! Check it out !
For #ScienceMastodon #Introductions Hi everyone, am a senior researcher at our national blood centre R&D (Lifeblood) and study all factors influencing #Platelets quality. Platelets are smallest blood cells but crucial to stop bleeding. 💉 🩸
RT @isth@twitter.com
Abstract submission for #ISTH2023 opens in December, but we want to make sure you know the deadline to submit will be a bit earlier this year: January 18, 2023. Plan ahead! Learn more at http://www.isth2023.org.

> Miss the 65K reach of my old bird account
Give it time ;) Anyway the reach on platforms like Titter is mostly illusory, since The Algorithms decide if and when any of the people following your account actually see any of your posts. Here, you can get much greater reach beyond those following your account by using hashtags, which are actively used here as a way of searching for relevant posts of people to follow.
I'm happy to say that I've now onboarded another iOS developer for our app, and we are set on making another update to the app as soon as possible. I've also onboarded the first batch of new moderators for this server.
I think it's glorious that there's now a Mastodon server operated by people who used to work for Twitter (macaw.social). I could have never imagined it when I started in 2016.
I recently learned about "HALT". It's a list of things to consider when you notice you're in a bad mood:
Hungry?
Angry?
Lonely?
Tired?
Knowing what's stressing you is important, because it allows you to actually address it. It's wild how often I'll be able to lift my mood just by doing something simple like having a snack or taking a short nap, and HALT has been helping me identify what's needed.
Y’all, if you’re getting frustrated you’re not seeing the content you want to like news or intel you need on Mastodon, you really need to shift your thinking from algorithmic social media. Follower counts don’t matter much here. Likes do not matter to post reach. Without your interaction, you will just see a live FIFO firehose. Some quick fixes:
Hashtag your posts liberally and consistently, and follow key hashtags of interest to you. Hashtags matter a ton here to being seen.
Follow and also alert on accounts you always want to see content from.
Consider using the built in RSS feature for your feeds and for specific hashtags.
Consider switching to the more advanced UI in your preferences, so you can watch multiple filtered and unfiltered feeds. Or a different mobile app.
Use Fedifinder to follow all the accounts you followed on Twitter, and sync up your follow and block lists.
Avail yourself of the multiple public lists of hundreds of journalist accounts on Mastodon.
Our piece on how science education needs to adapt for the misinformation age is now out in Scientific American.
