The @IAmSciComm poster threads

This week, I’ve been tweeting about posters at the IAmSciComm Twitter account. Most of the topics are ones I’ve blogged about before, but I made lots of new images special for these threads, and think I made some points better than I have before.

And I got to use a lot of GIFs. I mean, a lot a lot.
