Scientific communication strategies of microbiologists in the era of social media

Using an on-line survey
we collected data from 527 scientists, with 219 participants directly
working in the microbiology field and other 308 participants outside
this field. We asked questions regarding the preferred vehicles used
to stay updated with recent literature, to promote their science, to
find collaborators, and we particularly focused on the role social
media have in their scientific activities.
The collection of figures and tables contain the following:
- The original questionaire: Survey.pdf- Raw data from the survey: Raw_data.xlsx- Formatted data from the survey: Formatted_data.xlsx- Graphs summarizing the outcomes of the survey: Summary_graphs.pdf

and supplementary material from the written manuscript: Romano and Ansorge (2018), FEMS Microbiology Letters, doi: 10.1093/femsle/fny264
