This was one of the most difficult videos to create and I worked on this independently. I love the output and this video had also done very well on YouTube.

3.\u00a0Is your research viral yet?

Here’s what the video conveys at a glance:<\/p>\n

\"Why<\/a><\/p>\n

\n

I love how engaging and conversational this video is! It opens a whole new world of possibilities to researchers who may have been unaware of the impact that social media could have. I especially like it because I think it would be reassuring to researchers who have been hesitant to use social media to talk about their work. – Andrea<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

I like this one because it is a vibrant and impactful video that emphasizes the importance of sharing your research on social media. – Kakoli<\/strong><\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

4. The need for public engagement<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 <\/span>This video talks about how science and research should not exist in a vacuum. Instead, the general public should be given an opportunity to get involved with the scientific community by increasing their access to published research.<\/p>\n

\"The<\/a><\/p>\n

This video is so powerful! Science has no boundaries and whether or not a person belongs to academia, they should be a part of scientific advancement, and this is exactly what the video propagates. – Sneha<\/strong><\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Science has been more of an exclusive world for several reasons. However, over the years, as the world has changed, it\u2019s become evident that the general public needs to know more about science and research. I love the style in which the video conveys this message. – Sheng-Fen<\/strong><\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
