The idea behind the internship is to give guidance to doctors or students who want to become experts in social media. There are a number of different techniques and strategies in social media and we will provide the intern an opportunity to work with these techniques first hand. Projects that will be open to the interns include:
- NephMadness
- NephJC
- AJKDblog
- Renal Fellow Network
- Research
- UKidney
- DreamRCT
Technologies that the intern will be exposed to include:
- Podcasts
- Google hangouts
- Tweet chats
- Storify for curation
- Mail Chimp newsletters
- Twitter analytics
- Google analytics
- multiple blogging engines including:
- Blogger
- WordPress
- Medium
- SquareSpace
But more important than the technology, is that the interns will have access to our collective wisdom and have access to an instant personal learning network to allow them to pursue their personal social media goals. This is the first time we have done this and we are still working out the exact curricula, but if you are in nephrology, residency or medical school and want to learn how to leverage the power of social media consider applying for the position.
