Dr. Ronan Kavanagh, a rheumatologist at Galway Clinic, discusses how he used to learn from over 2,500 abstracts at medical conferences but now uses social media for more efficient learning and patient education. He describes his process of receiving RSS updates, sharing links and ideas on Twitter, getting feedback from followers, writing blog posts incorporating the ideas and feedback, and sharing the blogs on multiple social media platforms. The summary concludes with him thanking the audience and providing a QR code for the presentation slides.
