One of Team Science140, Maria Delaney, brought A Neutron Walks Into A Bar and the concept of Science 140 to London last weekend.
She hosted a workshop along with Catherine McGuinness (Natural History Museum) and Ian Bruswick (Science Gallery) at this year's Spot On London conference.
The workshop explored how to use Twitter as an effective means of science engagement and each of the presenters brought a different experience to the table. You can watch it back here.
They also made the workshop interactive by setting up a number of Twitter accounts for people to test out during the session including David Cattenborough, Brian Cox's Dog and Vanguard1. The Storify of this session is quite funny as a result!
Prior to the conference, Maria also wrote a case study about Science 140 which was published on the Spot On website (hosted by nature.com).
Great to see people engaging in the animal exercise at the #solo12twitter session twitter.com/briankelly/sta…
