\"jens_pic\"Who are you and what do you do?<\/span><\/strong>

Why are you attending HealthCamp Boston?
\n<\/strong>Excellent group lined up for HealthCampBoston (with running updates on Twitter). HealthCamps always seem to be the functional equivalent of liberal arts salons…lots of opinions, toss in some data, stir, and you’ve got a lot of productive sharing going on that usually drives change. Providing some new resource for an individual that they then repopulate within their organizational honeycomb does my heart good.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you were to lead a session, what would it be about? <\/strong>
\nSocial Media is a channel, people! Not an industry, not a movement. A communications channel. And a great one for connecting patients and providers alike. Let’s take a look at how to channel health content using a condition-specific Twitter case study – the development of @polarwisdom<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Tell us one random fact about yourself. <\/strong>
\nLove cigars, fascinated by ancient Egyptian history, and working on a theory of genetics+anthropology (genoanth) in my ‘spare’ time. Oh wait, that’s three. One random fact = usually guilty of overkill :).<\/span><\/p>\n

Where can we find you? <\/strong>
\nCarpetbagging on Twitter<\/strong><\/a>, various health\/tech conferences<\/span><\/p>\n

Are YOU <\/strong>coming to HealthCamp Boston? Let other campers know so they can find you.<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n
