<div class="answer">
<p>In this workshop, you will learn how to leverage crowdfunding to obtain seed funding. Science crowdfunding is an alternative approach that couples storytelling, fundraising, outreach and networking. Scientists in academia and the private sector have already successfully used it to supplement and substitute grants.</p>
<p>Participants will get an overview of various crowdfunding approaches and receive hands-on training, allowing them to apply the new knowledge to advance their specific research and career goals. The training will have a special focus on clinical and translational health sciences.</p>
<p>To raise seed funding, you will have the opportunity to develop a crowdfunding campaign with the <em>Experiment</em> team, post your campaign on the <em>Experiment</em> online platform and get marketing support to help achieve your funding goals.</p>

<div class="answer">
<p>In this workshop, you will learn how to use web-based approaches and social media to accelerate the dissemination and impact of your research findings.</p>
<p>Today, researchers have to make their publications stand out from the stack of nearly 800,000 science and engineering manuscripts that are published each year.</p>
<p>The good news is that there have never been more tools available that allow scientists to communicate their research proactively. Digital and social media make it easier for scientists to break out of the traditional science news cycle and track their impact to advance their careers.</p>
<p>In this workshop, we will explore a range of tools to help you to share your research outputs more broadly via digital and social media, e.g., scientific articles, data, software code, presentations, images, video, infographics.</p>
<p>We will introduce web-based approaches that help you to stay abreast of events and news related to your research and to better understand your audience and speak their language, and we will look at citation guidelines of online and social media content.</p>

<h3><i class="fa fa-plus-square"></i><i class="fa fa-minus-square"></i>Workshop Description</h3>
<div class="answer">
<p>Today, over 80 percent of Americans seek health information online and nearly 70 percent of all Internet users in the United States use digital and social media. These numbers are increasing, even among diverse and underserved populations. This trend provides huge opportunities for researchers.</p>
<p>For example, did you know that African Americans have exhibited relatively high levels of Twitter use? Fully 40% of 18-29 year old African Americans who use the Internet say that they use Twitter. Latinos go online from mobile devices and use social networking sites at similar – and sometimes higher – rates than do other Americans. And, around 81% of lower-income Americans say it is "very important" for the library to provide free access to the Internet and computers? (Pew Research Center, 2013, 2014)</p>
<p>Attendees of this workshop will learn how the general public, disease communities, and health care professionals use the Web and social media. They will learn about the potential and limitations of using the resulting ‘digital traces’ to inform their research and how to design data-driven online outreach strategies to achieve their research goals (e.g., engagement, enrollment).</p>
<p>You will also get access to <a href="http://www.symplur.com/signals" target="_blank">Symplur Signals</a>, an online application that provides more than 500 million healthcare-related tweets and 185 million user profiles from Twitter, all segmented by thousands of healthcare relevant topics.</p>
<p>The Symplur team will offer a free 30-minute explorative consulting session to each participant tailored to how their own research can leverage social media data.</p>

<h3><i class="fa fa-plus-square"></i><i class="fa fa-minus-square"></i>Pre-Workshop Reading</h3>
<div class="answer">
<p>Understanding how individuals and communities talk about healthcare issues, diseases, and health concerns can provide valuable insights that inform multiple areas of work such as business, communications and marketing, social work, medicine, arts, and research. However, this type of knowledge is scarce.</p>
<p>Social media listening describes the analysis of online user conversations. It is being used by the pharmaceutical industry, marketers, and a limited number of researchers who have used manual and computerized approaches to gain insights from social media data (e.g., <a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/?term=5+mins+of+uncomfyness+is+better+than+dealing+with+cancer+4+a+lifetime" target="_blank">Lyles et al., 2013</a> ; <a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/25365604" target="_blank">Pawelek et al., 2014</a>).</p>
<p>Online <a href="http://www.symplur.com/shorts/the-rise-of-patient-communities-on-twitter-visualized" target="_blank">disease/health communities</a> are growing, and they are particularly active on the microblogging social media platform Twitter – as evidenced by the growing number of disease-related conversations on Twitter and Symplur’s popular hashtag projects (<a href="http://www.symplur.com/healthcare-hashtags/diseases/" target="_blank">disease-focused</a> , <a href="http://www.symplur.com/healthcare-hashtags/" target="_blank">healthcare-focused</a>). For example, did you know that between June 2012 and October 2014, 13,372 users who self-identified as located in Los Angeles sent 35,295 messages on Twitter using the word “diabetes” in more than a dozen languages, including English, Spanish, Tagalog, Haitian, Korean, and Vietnamese (Symplur Signals)?</p>

<p>Please choose one of the following case studies. You will work in groups of four to complete one of the proposed analysis projects and to develop a data report.</p>
<p class="analysis-project-heading">Analysis Project #1</p>
<p><strong>You are doing marketing research for a healthcare firm that is exploring the potential for a new product idea. The product, a continuous blood glucose monitoring (CGM) device, is designed to be as minimally invasive as possible and to communicate directly with patients’ smartphone devices</strong>. You are in charge of gathering novel insights into perceptions of the various healthcare stakeholders and decide to leverage social media data. You focus your analysis on the following aspects/questions:</p>
<ul>
<li>Who is participating in these conversations and what can you learn about them and their communities?</li>
<li>What languages are the conversations in?</li>
<li>Where (locations in the U.S.) are the conversations regarding CGM taking place on Twitter?</li>
<li>How do they reference CGM? What can you say about their perception of currently available practices for monitoring glucose level?</li>
<li>Identify examples of CGM-related pain points that users express?</li>
<li>What resources regarding CGM are being shared and who are the sources? How influential are they?</li>
<li>Describe the opportunity that exists in the market for a new CGM device for direct integration with patients’ smartphone devices. In what areas could it potentially improve healthcare for patients, providers and other third parties?</li>
</ul>
<p class="analysis-project-heading">Analysis Project #2</p>
<p><strong>You have started a new job in a non-profit organization that is focused on increasing childhood vaccination rates for measles in the U.S. Your new supervisor gives you the opportunity to showcase your skills and independently develop a proposed communications plan</strong>. S/he asks you to support your recommendation with data but within the organization no market communication data is available. You decide to tap into social media data to develop a data-driven communications plan. You focus your analysis on the following aspects/questions:</p>
<ul>
<li>What can you learn about parents’ (target audience) perspectives on the measles vaccination? Are there different communities to be considered for the planned outreach?</li>
<li>What topics are being discussed?</li>
<li>What languages are being used?</li>
<li>Is there a particular time when the target audience is active online?</li>
<li>Who are key influencers among the target audience that are active on Twitter? Are all stakeholders engaged in the discussions?</li>
<li>How do the various stakeholders communicate? What different communications styles are being used?</li>
<li>What concerns and fears do parents express regarding measles vaccinations? How are they being addressed? Are there any positive stories being told?</li>
<li>Do they share resources? What are the sources?</li>
<li>Should the non-profit partner with any other active and influential organizations in these communities?</li>
<li>Based on the insight you can glean from Twitter social media data, what overall approach would you recommend for communicating to the target audience?</li>
</ul>
<p class="analysis-project-heading">Analysis Project #3</p>
<p><strong>You are a student in a research lab. You have been thinking about proposing a new research idea to your supervisor. You want to find out more about how patients living with chronic pain may or may not openly express their condition and how providers, caretakers, family and friends can deepen their understanding, thereby better supporting those patients</strong>. To strengthen your case, you have decided to conduct a preliminary analysis using social media data. By providing preliminary insight into the following questions, you want to persuade your supervisor to apply for funding in support of a broader study. You focus your analysis on the following aspects/questions:</p>
<ul>
<li>What communities on social media exist that chronic pain patients are part of?</li>
<li>Find out why chronic pain patients choose to join these communities.</li>
<li>How has the activity level of these online communities changed over time?</li>
<li>Are all stakeholders (patients, providers, caretakers, family and friends) present in these communities? How do they communicate differently from each other?</li>
<li>Can you detect different languages?</li>
<li>Where are people who participate in these online conversations located?</li>
<li>Describe the interactions between the participants.</li>
<li>What topics do they discuss? Are the discussions professional or personal in nature, involving how we may change and improve healthcare?</li>
<li>What unique insight can you glean that a typical healthcare provider visit may not pick up on?</li>
<li>What value may these communities bring to the patients? To the providers? To family and friends? Should you consider them in your research plan?</li>
</ul>
