Whilst there are of course many different social media platforms that offer ways of collaborating and learning, you will find on twitter most of the big medical education associations and publishers, along with many educators and researchers who share practice ideas through their content. So for now at least, twitter remains a great platform for connecting with the rest of the Medical Education community.

BMERG will also be regularly sharing news and events from Bristol through its new twitter account, as well as highlighting the work of other colleagues from around the world with ideas on best practice in Medical Education. Follow us at @BristolUniBMERG
