1/ @ssrc_org's #MercuryProject has 18 awesome teams (120+ social & behavioral scientists!). We also come together as a consortium to learn from another and outside experts, making us better than when we started and greater than the sum of our parts.

Enjoyed this! I failed the Moses test but after that tracked pretty well! Still 🍜ing on how different mechanisms of action (e.g., ⬇️ skepticism overall but w/ discernment) relate to what we want a healthy info environment to look like (e.g., lower sharing volume?) #MercuryProject @lkfazio.bsky.social
Many thanks to the Mercury Project from SSRC for the funding @hlanthorn.bsky.social

Anna Harvey - remember that a lot of our good ideas don't work, we need to be constantly testing and gathering evidence. Need to evaluate if what we're doing is working. (And that evaluation is easier if researchers are involved before implementation) /11 #MercuryProject

Final thoughts from Abdul El-Sayed - Remember intellect isn't describing things in big words it's about "using small words to describe big ideas" /10 #MercuryProject

Final tips for students in the room. Public health content is traditionally boring, but it doesn't have to be, learn from popular creators. What do they do to engage their audience? Copy those skills - Viknesh Sounderajah #MercuryProject /10
October 3, 2024 at 8:10 AM
Viknesh Sounderajah from YouTube Health - YouTube has one of the strictest policies against medical misinformation on platform. Also promotes and labels official trusted sources. But it's useful if creators make better and more engaging content! /9 #MercuryProject

If you're explaining and pushing back against opponents then you're not promoting your message. But we also need to explain science broadly and correct misbeliefs. It's a tough balance - Abdul El-Sayed #MercuryProject /8

When speaking for government ppl talk in taupe very careful very muted lots of jargon. But that's boring, does not work well on social media. Ppl like gossip/conflict ppl saying the govt is wrong get a lot of views. How can we fight back? - Abdul El-Sayed
